I think that's necessary the way the regex was originally formulated -- without it, ".+display" would gobble up all of the list-items until the last one.

I need some sleep. $pattern = '|^.+display:\s*none.+$|'; Also, if you're certain you'll only ever have one space there, you can just say that explicitly. $pattern = '|^.+display: none.+$|'; But I prefer to leave things open for robustness. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
