RE: [PHP] New Member: PHP 4 bug?

I had the same thing, when I tried to use Perl RegExpressions it often didn't work in PHP(4) Pls. Tell me if you'll find out the answers like what to use instead if it's not allowed at all..

Hi all, I have no idea how big this list is, or it's technical level, but as I have a question I thought it would be nice to start introducing myself. Having a technical background, I do some web development, and recently started using php to automate some of the web tasks. I do have a small LinuxPPC machine at home to do the development, and we do support several websites at our production webserver (Redhat Linux) for a few clients. At the server we have PHP 4.0.1 pl2, at the development server I do have PHP 3.0.12. I developed a small program that works fine at the development server, but not at the production server. Specifically the statement: ereg_replace("\W", "_", $id); seems to be not processed at all (meaning: replace all non alphanumeric characters by an underscore). Other ereg_replace calls are processed correctly on both servers. Does anybody know why PHP 3.0.12 processes this correctly and PHP 4.0.1 pl2 doesn't? Is this a bug?
