From: cloudyovercuba at gmail dot com Operating system: Ubuntu Linux PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Error in documentation for preg_match_all Description: ------------ In the documentation for preg_match_all at http://www.php.net/preg_match_all , example #3 shows that a example regex for named subpatterns is this: /(?<name>\w+): (?<digit>\d+)/ This does not work, and returns an error.
