Also using single quotes would be a good idea: if (preg_match('/[\\w\\x2F]{6,}/',$a)) Just switching to single quotes would do the trick - you don't need to escape anything but single quotes, and backslashes if they are the last character. Arpad It's true, it works but I still believe is best to do both, since you mayforget to doubleslash when it's imperative for the expression to work, even when using single quotes.
