[PHP] reg split address

[Terry Romine]

I have a submit field that may have an address formatted like:
        1234 main st
or may just be the street name: 
        main
I need to split the number off if present so I can test against 
database fields.

I need a eregi, split or preg_split that could do that. I've tried a 
few and either get the whole string in the first array element, or it 
fails to see the digits.

  if(eregi('[:digits:]+',$streetSearch,$streetArray))	die("num: 
$streetArray[0] name=$streetArray[1]");
  if(eregi('([\d]+) (.+)',$streetSearch,$streetArray)) die("num: 
$streetArray[0] name=$streetArray[1]");
  list($streetNum,$streetName)=split('(\d+) 
',$streetSearch);die($streetNum);
  $streetArray=preg_split('/^(\d+) (.+)/',$streetSearch);
	die("street number: $streetArray[0] street name:$streetArray[1]");

any help would be appreciated.

Terry
