Regex Help

What would the regex code be to match the first name (John) of the text below? The string John can change, so the regex would need to match any first name.

<title>John Smith - Website.com</title>

Also, what would the regex be to match the last name (Smith) of the following code?

Something like this might do the trick.

$s = "<title>John Smith - Website.com</title>";
preg_match( "#<title>([^ ]*) ([^ ]*)#" , $s , $matches );
print_r( $matches );

This isn't working. Anyone else care to give a try?

Do a view source to see the results.
