Help to refine regexp please

[fade2gray]

I'm trying to create a regexp to capture the first parameter and the delimiting comma of a php function.

e.g. ereg(<anything I might expect here>, param2, ...)

I currently have ... CODE,[/CODE]

Is there any eventuality I have missed - can it be improved?

Thanks for any advice.

Note: I am aware that ereg() and similar functions are deprecated, but I am trying to create a script to search for and modify such functions with their preg equivalent.

fade2gray,

Have you thought of using explode() ?

i.e.

$functionPrams = 'test,one,two,three';
$params = explode(',',$functionparams);
echo $params[0];
// output: test

OR

You can use func_get_args to get an array of parameters.

Outside of that - I am not a regex expert, just trying to help where I can.
