expression given in pattern in a case-sensitive
way.
Parameters
-
pattern -
Case sensitive regular expression.
-
string -
The input string.
-
regs -
If matches are found for parenthesized substrings of
patternand the function is called with the third argumentregs, the matches will be stored in the elements of the arrayregs.$regs[1] will contain the substring which starts at the first left parenthesis; $regs[2] will contain the substring starting at the second, and so on. $regs[0] will contain a copy of the complete string matched.
Return Values
Returns the length of the matched string if a match for
pattern was found in string,

Changelog
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 4.1.0 | Up to (and including) PHP 4.1.0 $regs will be filled with exactly ten elements, even though more or fewer than ten parenthesized substrings may actually have matched. This has no effect on ereg()'s ability to match more substrings. If no matches are found, $regs will not be altered by ereg(). |
Examples
Example #1 ereg() example
The following code snippet takes a date in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD) and prints it in DD.MM.YYYY format:
<?php
if (ereg ("([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{1,2})-([0-9]{1,2})", $date, $regs)) {
echo "$regs[3].$regs[2].$regs[1]";
} else {
echo "Invalid date format: $date";
}
?>
