[PHP] Escaping Regex Chars with addcslashes()
Hi all, If i want to find a url on a page, there are some chars i need to escape right? like '/' and '?' do i also need to escape '.'? Are there any other things that might pop up in a url that I can escape with addcslashes()?

It has preg_quote() function that is intended for this purpose. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
