note 78170 added to function.ereg

I stumbled across the following regexp testing tool... VERY handy. http://www.spaweditor.com/scripts/regex/index.php ...perhaps it's already famous? Allows testing of Perl and Posix style expression functions: ereg ereg_replace preg_match_all preg_match preg_replace... with a variety of flags. Allowed a relative regexp n00b as myself to come up with and test out beasts such as: <?php function stripAllTags( $s ) { return eregi_replace( "<[^>]*>", "", $s ); } ?> ..."[^>]"... grr... looks like an Easter island statue tipped on its side... wouldn't be needed with lazy matching ("*?", ".*?", whatever). ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 76.67.17.206 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ereg.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/78170 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78170/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78170/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78170/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78170/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78170/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78170/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78170 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/78170 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
