Hi Ed, did you try the backslash as escape character? <? $path = "testing/realtors/userdata/"; if(preg_match("/\/realtors/", $path)) { echo 'Success'; } ?> Works for me :o) Maybe try http://de3.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match.php too see some examples.

I'm trying to use preg_match to find a string in a system path. What I need to do is see if the string '/realtors' exists in a variable named '$path'. I know '/' is used as a container within the command itself. How do I escape it to find the string '/realtors'?
