HELP ! PREG_MATCH_ALL & VARIABLES

[Anon]

Hi -

I am trying to output all occurances of $word within $text as an array using PREG_MATCH_ALL

preg_match_all("$word",$text,$result);

foreach ($result[0] as $value){

	echo "$value<br>";

	}

it just keeps saying:

Delimiter must not be alphanumeric or backslash

Please Help !

The preg functions require a delimeter around the pattern (first argument) like "/$word/" or "|$word|"

To see the output, you can also do this.

echo "<pre>";
print_r($result[0]);
