Hmm, I only know the preg syntax. With that it's

preg_match ('/"([^"]*?)"/', $thestring, $matches);

$InQuotes = $matches [1];

[PHP] regex : Extracting parts of a string :-???

[akio]

Hello everyone,

 I have a string like

$thestring = "\"Hello everyone\" bye";

What I want to extract is: Hello everyone. Instead  I get: bye.
I use this command

ereg("([^\"\"]*)$",$thestring,$regs)

and echo $regs[1].

How can I extract what's within double quotes?


TIA

Regards
