A period (.) has a special meaning in that it matches any character. To match 
a literal period you have to escape it with a backslash:

  if (ereg("(\.inc | \.php)$",$o0o) && !ereg("\/\.\.", $o0o)) {

[PHP] quick ereg() question

[eriol]

I checked the manual and it's comments as well as google, but didn't find the
simple answer i'm wanting..

I have the following line in a "show php source code" page:


if (ereg("(\.php)$",$o0o) && !ereg("\/\.\.", $o0o)){
  ...
}


It works fine on .php files but I was hoping I could include .inc files as well
when someone wanted to view the source of them.. To include .inc files as
viewable php source code, I'd rewrite it similar to below I assume, but I'm not
understanding the syntax I'm missing..


if (ereg("(\.inc | .php)$",$o0o) && !ereg("\/\.\.", $o0o)){
  ...
}


I know I have to use a pipe to seperate allowable file types, but that's the
extent of what I know.. Any help would be appreciated.. TIA..

Take care.. peace..
eriol
