RE: [PHP] regex expession problems

I don't have that much experience with preg* functions but if that's exactly how you've got it in your code, shouldn't there be no spaces?? that is: preg_match("/http:\/\/ | [[:space:]]/i",$valToEval); * * \-\----both of these should be removed ????? -----Original Message----- From: Carl E Shmidt [mailto:lanvaledsl@earthlink.net] Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2002 11:41 AM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] regex expession problems But hey, who doesn't have em eh? Anyway, here's my predicament. I want to look for either the string "http://" or for 1 or more spaces in a string. Here's the regex I've got preg_match("/http:\/\/ | [[:space:]]/i",$valToEval); I can get each test case working individually, but as soon as I combine them, it no longer works. What's going on here?
