OK, let's take a close, step-by-step look at this ereg pattern: _ OK -- matches an underscore ( OK -- just a group opener ^ uh-oh -- only matches the *start* of the string, so will always fail! As far as I can see, you don't need that caret in there at all -- it's not as if you're even trying to negate the bracketed range which follows. Cheers!
