Well, it seems both of you does not match the problem. I have many apps running with IT. These apps use preg and everything to do with preg has be done. Now, drop preg, what happens ? That's why I'm against to drop preg ***BY DEFAULT***. And finally, try to be pollite and everything will go fine and fast :)

Translating this into plain English: there is a well known bug in the public package I maintain. In my private applications I have some workarounds for it. Now, I don't want to bother changing my applications, so don't want anyone to fix a bug in the package.

Without looking at the code (and never using IT), I would guess it's possible to do something like ->addBlock('([a-z]{4})','please \\1 down', $template); With str_replace instead of preg_replace that would no longer work. hope that helps to end the discussion Matthias
