Find multiple dates in a string

[lfernando]

Hello,

 

I have a few strings that contain dates along with some other text.

The string looks like this:

 

Hi, could you please add these dates to the database?<br />
<br />
<br />
2-September-2011<br />
6-September-2011<br />
7-September-2011<br />
8-September-2011<br />
9-September-2011<br />
<br />
Thank you.

 

Dates are always the same format. Sometimes there's a single date, most times there are multiple.

Does anyone know how can I get the dates from this string to add them to my sql database?

 

Thank you!

Something like:

 

preg_match_all('/\d{1,2}-[^-]+-\d{4}/', $string, $matches);
print_r($matches[0]);
