i am fighting with this small php issue, i am trying to read the url parts from a page.

php code is this: 

preg_match_all('!<a href="Jobbörse-reader\/items\/(.*?)" title=".+">(.*?)</a>!',$content,$ergebnisse);

my problem is that preg_match_all() is returning 0 and if i var_dump the $ergebnisse, i am getting empty array like this: 

array(3) { [0]=> array(0) { } [1]=> array(0) { } [2]=> array(0) { } }

the page code where i am reading from is this: 

<a href="Jobbörse-reader/items/somelink.html" title="some text">NAME</a>

i need somelink.html and NAME, but obviously, it cannot match them, can someone help me please?

BTW: i am reading the content successfully.
thanks

    I have tested your code 

    <?php
$content='<body>
<a href="Jobbörse-reader/items/somelink.html" title="some text">NAME</a>
</body>';
echo preg_match_all('!<a href="Jobbörse-reader\/items\/(.*?)" title=".+">(.*?)</a>!',$content,$ergebnisse);
echo "\n";
var_dump($ergebnisse);

    And it totally works:

    $ php test.php 
1
array(3) {
  [0]=>
  array(1) {
    [0]=>
    string(73) "<a href="Jobbörse-reader/items/somelink.html" title="some text">NAME</a>"
  }
  [1]=>
  array(1) {
    [0]=>
    string(13) "somelink.html"
  }
  [2]=>
  array(1) {
    [0]=>
    string(4) "NAME"
  }
}
