Please tell me what functions to use. There is a variable with text, I need to search for a fragment of the text in it using the regular expression [Az] + (,), and the most important thing is to get the first match found.

  • So you tried? goo.gl/mXtcq8 - PinkTux pm
  • Tried it. I need real advice on how to perform a search in a string using a regular expression and then get the first match found - Gildars
  • Then show me exactly how you tried (your code) and what the specific problem was. As it is prescribed, and the rules of the site, and the rules of good form. - PinkTux

An example of using the preg_match () function:

$subject = "test, test2"; preg_match('/[Az]+(,)/', $subject, $matches); print_r($matches); //Array ( [0] => test, [1] => , )
