PHP supports Perl regex through the preg_replace and preg_match functions. You don't need to change your regex at all.

preg_match_all will generate a list of all matches. php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match-all.php

You may want to consider adjusting your regex to capture more address.

Warning: preg_match_all() [function.preg-match-all]: Delimiter must not be alphanumeric or backslash in parser.php on line 13 Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in parser.php on line 15 Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Invalid arguments passed in parser.php on line 18 \b[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}\b

@Dasa You have to put delimiters around it, like in Perl. preg_match('/your pattern/') See php.net/manual/en/regexp.reference.delimiters.php
