Regex help needed

I’m trying to parse the string:

[code]
Test link() filter %link(filterTest, http://www.ez-ms.com, Link Text, parent_id=x, user_id=tony, title=Link Test) and trailing text.
And this is the 2nd link() test for %link(filterTest2, http://www.ez-ms.com, 2nd Link Text, parent_id=x, user_id=tony2, title=Link Test2).
[/code]

Using this preg_match_all() call:

[code]
preg_match_all(‘;%link((.*)[^)];im’, $str, $matches);
[/code]

Without the ‘U’ modifier it returns:

[code]
matches:Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[0] => %link(filterTest, http://www.ez-ms.com, Link Text, parent_id=x, user_id=tony, title=Link Test) and trailing text.

[1] => %link(filterTest2, http://www.ez-ms.com, 2nd Link Text, parent_id=x, user_id=tony2, title=Link Test2).
)

[1] => Array
(
[0] => filterTest, http://www.ez-ms.com, Link Text, parent_id=x, user_id=tony, title=Link Test) and trailing text.
[1] => filterTest2, http://www.ez-ms.com, 2nd Link Text, parent_id=x, user_id=tony2, title=Link Test2)
)

)
[/code]

And with the ‘U’ modifier it returns:

[code]
matches:Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[0] => %link(f
[1] => %link(f
)

[1] => Array
(
[0] =>
[1] =>
)

)
[/code]

It does not seem to want to recognize the [^{^)]} termination of the pattern space.

Can anyone help? I would like $matches to contain the arguments inside the %link(….) text so I can parse them appropriately. But I’m kind of stumped. I’ve tried changing the pattern terminator to [^{^)]} without any luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
