Hi Steve,
Bit late to the party, but I would go something like:
$string = '[email protected]#mailto:[email protected]#';
if(preg_match('/#mailto:(?<email>[a-z...@\.]+)#/i', $string, $matches))
{
$email = $matches['email'];
}
Benefit is that it is pretty easy to add additional matches, like:
''/(<link>[^#]+)#mailto:(?<email>[a-z...@\.]+)#/i' would give you
$matches['link'] containing the link.
Cheers,
Stig

Hi
I have a field in a database with
[email protected]#mailto:[email protected]# . I want to reduce it
to just the email address.
Is is better/faster to use
substr($innerRow['PeopEmail'],0,strpos($innerRow['PeopEmail'],'#'))
or
array_shift(explode('#',$innerRow['PeopEmail']))
Thanks
Steve
