Use the 'D' modifier if you want to change that behaviour. See http://www.php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.modifiers.php eg. echo preg_match('~^\w$~D', "a\n"); Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-05-06 04:35:36] kulakov74 at yandex dot ru Sorry, the title should be "preg_match() ignores trailing linebreak" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-05-06 04:19:53] kulakov74 at yandex dot ru Description: ------------ I want to check if a string is a single wordcharacter but even it has a trailing linebreak preg_match() returns 1.
