note 95827 added to ref.pcre

I noticed that in order to deal with UTF-8 texts, without having to recompile php with the PCRE UTF-8 flag enabled, you can just add the following sequence at the start of your pattern: (*UTF8) for instance : '#(*UTF8)[[:alnum:]]#' will return TRUE for 'é' where '#[[:alnum:]]#' will return FALSE found this very very useful tip after hours of research over the web directly in pcre website right here : http://www.pcre.org/pcre.txt there are many further informations about UTF-8 support in the lib hop that will help! -- cedric ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 80.125.165.184 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pcre.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/95827 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95827/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95827/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95827/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95827/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95827/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95827/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95827 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/95827 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
