preg_match... 1

[Guest_imported]

Argh..this is doing my head in! I have;

$return = preg_match("viewforum\.php","http\:\/\/

http://www\.ace\-installer\.com\/viewforum\.php",$in);

But this is returning;

Warning: Delimiter must not be alphanumeric or backslash in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/ace-installer.com/httpdocs/php/modules/Forums/index.php on line 68

This is REALLY getting on my nerves. I have escaped every possible charachter, yet it still won't work!" What gives?

Cheers

Andy

The "preg_" family of functions use perl-compatible regular expressions, and so require that search expressions use perl's delimiters, which is "/". For more information:

Try your search expression as "/viewforum\.php/" ______________________________________________________________________
