I am using the following regexp to capture the data string.
preg_match_all('/#(\\w+)/', $string, $matches);
Ex:
#car #CAR
He should ignore the second.

That should do it. Or if the only characters you want to match after the first # are letters:
preg_match_all('/#([a-zA-Z]+)/', $string, $matches);
Works! Thank you!! =D
Sorry for the double post, but I still have a problem:
How do I do to remove the space from the end of each match?
If I try to use ‘\s’ the above example does not work …
This in preg_replace();
The second one will do that. Maybe digits should also be OK, then:
preg_match_all('/#([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/', $string, $matches);
or amending the first one:
preg_match_all('/#([^# ]+)/', $string, $matches);
In fact, if a space always follows what you want to capture, then this will do:
preg_match_all('/#([^ ]+)/', $string, $matches);
Thank you again!! =D
