A:
Your question is very vague but I think you probably forgot to escape the square brackets. They denote a character class in RegEx.
preg_match('/\[200932\]/', $str, $matches);
If you were to use /[200932]/ it would mean "2 or 0 or 9 or 3".
Edit:
To capture numbers between square brackets:
/\[(\d+)\]/
That's
\[ A square bracket
( Start capturing group
\d+ A digit, 1 or more times
) End capturing group
\] A closing square bracket

Hello, not sure if I understand your question right, but here is it anyway:

A:
You tried: #[([.])]#
Try this: \[([0-9]*)\]
(Without the * the string matches only one digit and you used . which matches on all chars even a,b,c,- or /)
