Extract a string from a string!

[mamruoc]

Greetings!

How do I extract a string from la lager string:

Ex:

This is me, please send me ([e-mail]) en email soon!!!

I need to be able to extract the email adress, and it would better if I could check if the email has the mandatory @ and . (dot)!

Thanks!

$string = "Mail me at [email][e-mail][/email] now!";
$string = explode ('@', $string)
$string[0] = explode (' ', $string[0]);
$string[1] = explode (' ', $string[1]);

$email = $string[0][count($string[0]) - 1].'@'.$string[1][0];

Code works! Have a fun time comprehending how the heck it works. I know you could also do some fancy regular expression stuff.. but that just confuses me :-/
