<P>You have to escape '(' sign in regexp with backslash... brackets has special
meaning in regular expressions.</P>
<P>ereg_replace("\(","_",$input) shold be OK</P>
<P>P.S. the right bracket version doesn't produce an error message, because regular
expression engine doesn't find left bracket before it and is so smart and can recognize, that
you are using it in "normal" meaning...</P>
