Hi to all,
I would like to get field values from a multi-line text.

For instance :
"
Name: Mr Smith
Address: Paris
"

I've tried to use (I'm a total regexp newbie, so I took it from the doc):
eregi("Name: (.*)\n",$VariableHoldingTheText,$parts);

Problem: $parts[1] starts at the right place, but does not stop at the
end of the line. I get :
"Mr Smith
Address: Paris
"

Where am I wrong ? I've tried to google around, but didn't find anything
that could help me...

Thanks in advance for your help/hints/links !

BR
