PHP: Regular expression for span tag

Question

That is my code:

preg_match('/\<span id\="([a-zA-Z0-9\s]+?)\"\>([a-zA-Z0-9\s]+?)\<\/span\>/', '<span id="1">test</span> <span id="2">test1</span>', $match);

    var_dump($match);

But why in $match array have only id=1 and test?

Regex shouldn't be used with HTML http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1732348/regex-match-open-tags-except-xhtml-self-contained-tags — PriestVallon, Aug 26 '12 at 16:43

I believe you are looking for preg_match_all.
