preg-match-all

Hi,

i'm using

preg_match_all('/<?(.*)?>/', $bigString, $matches, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE);

to find the contents of everthing between ''

Now I'd like to find everthing that is NOT between ''

I'm trying with

preg_match_all('/^(<?(.*)?>)/', $bigString, $nonmatches, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE);

but that doesn't seem to work...

How can i find everthing that is not between '' ?
