note 96694 added to book.regex

Yeah, I'd agree. My boss is pissed. I'm switching over a big file with lots of ereg() calls to preg_match() calls, adding slashes or #s on both sides of the pattern arg. And hoping there's not subtle gotchas or differences between the regex syntax that impact us. In fact I've seen a few bugs in these regexes... hope the bugs work the same. Would be REALLY REALLY nice if the manual had a Guide to Migrating from eregs to pregs, with step-by-step instructions for how to convert this call to that call, this funny bracketed expression with a funny character to that replacement that works the same. stuff like that. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 72.62.4.90 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.regex.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/96694 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96694/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96694/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96694/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96694/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96694/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96694/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96694 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/96694 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
