Who said it didn't? It still gives you the matches via the $matches array reference.

GSto, please read the link posted by Josh. As already mentioned: you're wrong. preg_match_all can be used just fine.

That's wholly incorrect, sir. As seen in Felipe's response, the 3rd parameter to preg_match_all is the matches themselves.
