[RESOLVED] preg_match

[Static]

I have never been good with regular expressions...

function getTitle($Url){
    $str = file_get_contents($Url);
    if(strlen($str)>0){
          $str = preg_replace('/\s+/', ' ', $str);
        preg_match("/\<title\>(.+)\<\/title\>/i",$str,$title);
        if (isset($title[1])) {
            if ($title[1]=='' ){
                return $Url;
            }else{
                
                return trim($title[1]);
            }
        }else{
            return $Url;
        }
            
    }

} 

works fine for any normal <title< </title> tags
also works for titles with new lines...

Im trying to get it to work with titles that have and id or something else

so how do i tweak this:
preg_match("/\<title\>(.+)\<\/title\>/i",$str,$title);
to get this:
<title id="pageTitle">THIS TITLE</title>

tried:
"/\<title.+\>(.+)\<\/title\>/i"
"/\<title\.*\>(.+)\<\/title\>/i"
"/\<title.*\>(.+)\<\/title\>/i"
