Close enough, I think. At least for most needs. I've never felt any real frustration over a lack of support.

Just have to remember where I'm doing the trial and map it correctly to the implementation.
Sometimes that's the source of the "error" in trial and error. :-) On 3/30/06, Ben Doom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Except, as you pointed out in another post, lookbehind and a couple of > other hardly-ever-used doodads aren't supported, which means not 100% > PCRE.
