title: Preg_Match a string in the form of a URL
body: <p>I have a URL as a string. How do I match the numbers after the VideoID. Also VideoID may occur at different points in the URL. But I will worry about that afterwards, as I can't even do this.</p>
  
  <pre><code>$string = 'http://example.com/index.php?action=vids.individual&amp;VideoID=60085484';
  
  preg_match('/(?&lt;VideoID&gt;)=/', $string, $matches);
  
  print_r($matches);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>...Spare some change for a noob. :)</p>
