ID: 13822 Updated by: sander Reported By: mick@nederland.net Old Status: Duplicate Status: Closed Bug Type: Regexps related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: I meant closed :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-10 15:39:06] sander@php.net Works fine for me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-10-25 08:29:11] mick@nederland.net We have build a function to convert iso to euro dates, therefor we use regular expressions. The code shows a line needed for a boolean return wether or not the date is in iso style. if(!ereg("^([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{1,2})-([0-9]{1,2})$", $iso_time, $regs)) The ereg version is working perfectly, however the eregi version will fail 9 out of 10 times.
