preg_replace problem [resolved]

I am such a regex noob it is not even funny. I have found this function to covert BBcode to HTML, but I found a problem.
If I do this, then it makes the URL like it should and puts the words 'Other Text' after the link like you would exprect.

Code:

---

[ url=http://blah.com]balh[/url] Other Text
'<a href="http://blah.com target="_blank">blah</a> Other text"

---

If I do this, the 2 links get merged together.

Code:

---

[ url=http://blah.com]balh[/url] Other Text [ url=http://blah2.com]blah2[/url]
'<a href="http://blah.com" target="_blank">balh[/url] Other text [ url=http://blah2.com]blah2</a>

---

Here is my code to do the regex stuff

PHP Code:

---

$texte = preg_replace('/\[url=(.+?)\](.+)\[\/url\]/i','<a href="\\1" target="_blank">\\2</a>',$texte); 


---

**edit, I had to add the space between [ and url because vbforums was making it a link :)

Crap, it messes up my preg_replace stuff too.

I use this, it works fine with multiple links on the same line:

Code:

---

<?
  $txt = preg_replace("/\[link=(.*?)\](.*?)\[\/link\]/i", "<a href=\"$1\" target=\"new_win\">$2</a>", $txt);
?>

I'll give it a shot, thanks. Any idea what the difference is between (.+?) and (.*?)

It works!!!! You rock! Maybe some day I will try to understand regular expressions :)
