Try using just # (since / is actually going to be in the text you're searching for) like this: <?php $data = file_get_contents("http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQ2dKXGAjNg"); preg_match('#<title>([^<]*)</title>#iU', $data, $match); $title = $match[1]; echo $title; ?> HTH, Todd Boyd Web Programmer -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
