Note Submitter: bobbykjack at yahoo dot co dot uk ---- If anyone else out there is having a problem with the 'general repetition quantifier', please take heed of the note ", separated by a comma." (which should be rewritten ",separated ..." !) Specifically, <?php $pattern = '/z{2, 4}/'; ?> is NEVER what you want. Ensure there is no comma between the min and max values: <?php $pattern = '/z{2,4}/'; ?>
