PHP: Split string into array around a wildcard

Question

I have a string containing:

< a href="/wiki/Bob" title="Bob" >

There are ten and more unrelated data in bettween them that i don't need. Basically, I want the title for each one placed in an arrray and they're different. I thought this would be easy, but I can't find out how to do it. Perhaps using explode() and a wildcard, but apparently you can't use a wildcard?

Any help greatly appreciated.

EDIT:I forgot to mention that the will change every week form 'Bob' for example to 'Tim'.

Answer 1

Maybe something like this?

<?php
$string = '<th align="center" style="width:10%;"><a href="/wiki/Bob" title="Bob"><img alt="BobSquare.png" src="image" width="48" height="48" /></a><br /><a href="/wiki/Bob" title="Bob" class="mw-redirect">Bob</a>';

$title_array = array();
$explode = explode('title="', $string);
unset($title_array[0]);
foreach($title_array as $k => $v)
{
    $explode_string = explode('"', $v);
    $title_array[] = $explode_string[0];
}

print_r($title_array);
?>

Output:

Array
(
    [0] => Bob
    [1] => Bob
)
