Well, in the least case Ubuntu has a locale lookup problem, and in the worst case the ctype functions are all but useless for real world usage. (Unless text that contains British currency is considered highly exotic.)
I'm very familiar with PCRE, so I guess I'm going to have to finally give up on ctype and put together an analogue using preg_match. Just a pity that the built-in ctype family seem so problematic. -- PHP Unicode & I18N Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
