Humor me, how useful would a Regex switch statement be?
Like:
ereg_switch($filename) {
case "/\.jpg$/":
echo "JPEG Image"; break;
case "/\.gif$/";
echo "GIF Image"; break;
case "/\.zip$/":
echo "Compressed File"; break;
default:
echo "Unkown File Type"; break;
}
That is just an example of an application of such, I have other applications that I would like to
use it for, but that serves the best example. I would love to get started on a module project for
something like this, as using IF blocks with PREG_MATCH become tedious and inefficient. If you know
of such a module or would know how to get started, please repsond with your ideas/input.
