I'm trying to get a part of a string that starts with for example Name:
. If the whole string looks like Name: Carl
, I just want the Carl
part and not the Name:
prefix.
How can I do that? I have tried with:
$data = file_get_contents('page.html');
$regex = '/Name:.*/';
preg_match($regex,$data,$match);
var_dump($match);
But I get the output:
array(1) { [0]=> string(28) "Name: Carl"
The other thing I don't understand is why the array(1) { [0]=> string(28)
is showing.
