Preg is more flexible than ereg.
if (preg_match('/\a.*?\(.+?)\\/a/', $string1, $matches))
print Matched: {$matches[1]};
That'll just get what's between the a and /a.

Thanks Miguel,
I'm going to check out preg_match(). What if there are more than one
instance of a and /a in my string, but I know that I want the last two
occurances at the end. Can I tell it to check starting at the end of the
string and work forwards? Thanks again!

I want to thank everyone for their help. I finally found the right
expression. I needed to start at the end of the string and work backwards.
STRRCHR did the trick for me. I was able to use:
$match = substr(strrchr($string1, ), 1 );
echo $match;
I'm actually not sure what role the last 1

$string1 = a href='/Schedule_Detail'Here's the Schedule/a;
ereg((.*)/a, $string1, $matches);
$string2 = $matches[1];
Something close to that anyway...

Thanks Philip. This gives me everything before the ' that I'm looking
for but I believe it is because it occurs more than once. I think I need to
count the times that ' occurs and then try to target the specific
occurance that I need. But I'm guessing a little. Thanks for your help.
