Yeah, we can definately draw some conclusions regarding this function: When you get a warning with "REG_EMPTY" it's probably a split() (or ereg(), ereg_replace) function with special regex characters supplied, like the pipe (|) or parantheses. It's safe to use explode() since it does not require a regex, but a normal string. split("|",....) will not work split("\|",....) on the contrary. Well, for those who are getting delusions after hours spent composing regular expressions with little effect, a syntax checker: http://www.bitesizeinc.net/demo.regexp.html ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.split.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+45311 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+45311&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+45311&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
