Here is one example: Reproduce code: --------------- $word='µÚ 1 Òô¹ì'; if (preg_match('/^(\D+?) +?(\d{1,}) +?(\D+?)$/',$word,$match)) { print "$match[1]\n$match[2]\n$match[2]\n"; }; //If i remove the '^' and '$' - it works //But than expression is not exactly what i want coz it //begins to match other stuff in different strings. Expected result: ---------------- µÚ 1 Òô¹ì Actual result: -------------- nono..nothing niks given code works perfectly in perl -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32314&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32314&r=mysqlcfg
