Old Summary: $ can't be escaped when using ereg function
Old Status: Open
Status: Bogus
Bug Type: *Regular Expressions
Operating System: LINUX
PHP Version: 4.0.6
New Comment:
This is known and expected behavior. Please review the regex docs more carefully -
also search the php-general mailing list archives.
The quick fix is to place 3 backslashes in front of the $.

Please see the codes below:
<?
$arrfile = '<?include("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/TEMPLATES/TOP-BANNER.HTM");?>';
if(eregi("<\?include\(\"\$DOCUMENT_ROOT/TEMPLATES/TOP-BANNER\.HTM\"\);\?>",$arrfile))
print "good\n";
else
print "bad\n";
?>
The result will return "bad" because the eregi can't find the expression in the
$arrfile. If I removed the $, it will return "good". I guess "$" can't be escaped
inside the eregi function. Please help.
