How do I find an exact match of a string with preg_match?

Example:

String1:  www.test.com/
String2: www.test.com/somepage.php?param1=true

How do you write the regexp to only return String1 and not String2 when you
match against "www.test.com" ??

You should use the ^ and $ characters which signify the start and the end of the string respectively.


For example:

$matched = preg_match('/^www\.test\.com$/', $string);

For more information look at the Pattern Syntax page:
