I would appreciate if anybody could tell me how to use an utf8 encoded string in a regular expression.
I have tried this
$string = "a username written in greek letters";
preg_match('#^[\w][\w0-9_]{2,39}$#', $string);Which does not work, i have also tried to utf8_decode the string and pass it to the regex, which doesn't work either.
I would appreciate if anybody could help me out here, i have searched the web but with no results.
Thanks a lot in advance, Jürgen Hauser
