[PHP] Extract email address from string

2001-08-18 Thread Gaylen Fraley 

I need to parse a string and extract only the email address.  What is the
best way to do this?

i.e.

$string = Please send all email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject
line of Test.;

$email_addr would be equal to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Thanks.

Well you need to search for @

then search forwards and backwards till you get to whitespaces

store those positions

then use the substr function.

Seb,

Seomthing like

?PHP
$string = Please send all email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a;

ereg('.* (.*@[^ ]* )',$string,$m);

echo $m[1] . \n


Might be a start.

Andy
