(tested your script with using some random file and it works just fine) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-04 09:09:24] php at soundofos dot demon dot nl According to the documenmtation,preg_match can handle Arrays But this will cause PHP to lock up the computer. $regExp = "/((\/\*)+([\*]*\s*)+(\w+ *)+([\*]\s*(\*+\/{1}))+){1}/"; $file = file($obj->fileLocation); $sql = preg_replace($regExp,"",$file); I have tried imploding the array obtained from file() first but the result was the same. Maybe i should mention that PHP is running in CGI mode. regards, Ed Hofrichter ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23053&edit=1
