Forgive me as I am a newbie programmer. How can I assign the resulting $matches (preg_match) value, with the first character stripped, to another variable ($funded) in php? You can see what I have below:
<?php
$content = file_get_contents("https://join.app.net");
//echo $content;
preg_match_all ("/<div class=\"stat-number\">([^`]*?)<\/div>/", $content, $matches);
//testing the array $matches
//echo sprintf('<pre>%s</pre>', print_r($matches, true));
$funded = $matches[0][1];
echo substr($funded, 1);
?>
