need some help with a regular expression

I need to filter text for something like:
tabel 2.1
So it needs to catch that entire piece of text (actually where the word 'table' starts and ends I guess) AND then I want the number (2.1) stored seperately in a variable so I can access it.

help?

thanks for the help cunts

figured it out

Code:

$haystack = 'voor een gebruiksfunctie in tabel 2.5 voorschriften zijn'; //example text
$match = '#b(tabel)(s{1})(&#91;0-9.&#93;{1,})#'; //(first match the word 'tabel') (second match a single whitespace character) (third match a word which consists of numbers and dots only) -->matches stored in variables ordered in the sequence they are indexed/ started
$replace = "<a href="#" onClick="javascriptwinBRopen('view/table/?tabel_nr=$3', '', 800, 600, 0, 0, 0, 0)">$1$2$3</a>";
return preg_replace($match, $replace, $haystack);

I know this is an old topic, just stumbled upon it. Your RegEx is a little weird and the "." actually matches anything (not just a literal dot), so I bet that it does not work on the following string:

"this tabel is tabel 3.2"

You can simply use:

Code:

#b(tabel)s+([d.]+)#
