Hmmz, I almost suspect it has something to do with how he posts. I'm
assuming that the n's are supposed to be \n's... Probably it should read:
'/\d+\)\s(.+)\s:\s(.+)/', which would be somewhat workable.
In that case this can be done faster without regexes:
$array = array();
$temp_array = explode("\n",$string);
foreach($temp_array as $value){
list($tkey, $tvalue) = explode(' : ',
substr($value,strpos($value,')')+1));
$array[trim($tkey)] = trim($tvalue);
}
Depending on how reliable the spaces are the trim() could be unneccesary.
