Preg_match help

[sitehatchery]

I'm looking for the occurence of whatever is in between:
<h2 class=abc><a href=" .... "

Here's what I've tried to piece together, but it's not working:

$pattern = '/\[<h2 class=abc><a href=\"\] (.*) \[\"]/i';

preg_match($pattern, $data, $matches);

print_r($matches); 

Any help?

$pattern = '/<h2 class=abc><a href="([^"]+)"/i'; 

Match would then be in $matches[1].

may this help you..

$pattern = '/(<h2 class\=abc\>\<a href\=\")(.*?)(\"\>)/i';

preg_match($pattern, $data, $matches);

echo $matches[2];
