Solved with a little trial and error I simply changed preg_match('/<title">([^"]*)<\/title>/isu',$var2,$title); to preg_match('/<title">([^"]*.?)<\/title>/isu',$var2,$title);

I am trying to extract between the <title> </title> tags from several different websites. The code below works perfectly unless there are non ascii characters in the result. But the weird thing is that while it doesn't produce an output if the string has odd characters - it doesn't produce an error either. The characters (and they won't always be the same characters) in the example that breaks are ➹➹➹➹➹ which produces the code below. I want the regex to pickup the characters (in this case ➹) and everything between the title tag. ➹➹➹➹➹ Carnival Cruise Departure Dates preg_match('/<title">([^"]*)<\/title>/isu',$var2,$title); $title=$title[1]; if (preg_last_error() == PREG_NO_ERROR) { echo "----------Title: ".$title."<br>"; } else if (preg_last_error() == PREG_INTERNAL_ERROR) { echo "----------Title: There is an internal error!"; } else if (preg_last_error() == PREG_BACKTRACK_LIMIT_ERROR) { echo "----------Title: Backtrack limit was exhausted!"; } else if (preg_last_error() == PREG_RECURSION_LIMIT_ERROR) { echo "----------Title: Recursion limit was exhausted!"; } else if (preg_last_error() == PREG_BAD_UTF8_ERROR) { echo "----------Title: Bad UTF8 error!"; } else if (preg_last_error() == PREG_BAD_UTF8_ERROR) { echo "----------Title: Bad UTF8 offset error!"; } Thanks in advance.
