This might do the trick (not tested):
preg_match( /div\s+[^]*([^]*)\/div, $yourtext, $match );

Thank you everbody. I figured it out without regex. It's not for
production, just testing:
$pos_1 = strpos($contents, $word1);
$pos_2 = strpos($contents, $word2, $pos_1);
$text = strip_tags(substr($contents, $pos_1, $pos_2 - $pos_1));
That works as well.
Or...
strip_tags() which would work perfectly well for the example excerpt you
gave us!

[PHP] extracting text - regex
Hello, I am trying read text out of a text that is inbetween two divs. Somehow this should be possible with regex, I just can't figure out how. Example: div id=test bla blub /div I would like to extract the text bla blub out of this example. Has anybody an idea on how to do that? Is there a special php function available for this?
