I got the code for doing the preg_match from this site and it seems to work just fine. The reason to use end(...) as far as I can tell is to make sure that I only get the last match of the group. Neat little trick and the link I posted demonstrates it. [...] […] The only tricky thing here really is the use of the end function to grab that last match of the status codes.

Your method might work, but curl by itself collects and provides these information much more reliable like this <code> $code = curl_getinfo($ch,CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);</code> Hi there,

Your method might work, but curl by itself collects and provides these information much more reliable like this
$code = curl_getinfo($ch,CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);

"/HTTP/1.[1|0]s(d{3})/"
