[PHP] Does the array parameter of ereg actually return strings matched?

[Dexter]

Does the array parameter of ereg actually return strings matched? I tried to read a 
file looking for a string using

ereg and wanted to put the matched strings found in an array. Doesn't seem to

be happening with the following.



 $contents=fread($readfile,100000);

     $pattern="<a href.*\">";
        $i=0;
      while(!feof($readfile))
       {

         $contents=fgets($readfile,4065);

            if(eregi($pattern,$contents,$regs))
             {   echo "$regs[$i]<br>";
              }
             $i++;
        }


Thanks
