[SOLVED] preg_match email addresses


inactive

Recommended Posts

hey guys just doing my first preg_match to look for a valid email address.

 

im using "^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(\]?)$^"

 

which works, but the thing is i need it to pick out an email out of a csv-like string.

 

i.e. the sting may be:

"foo","bar","foobar","foo@bar.com"

 

and i need it to pick out the foo@bar.com, and just cant work out how to do it.

 

any ideas?

 

probably a kinda lame question i know, but all the regex tutes i find are so complex...

 

cheers.
