Postgres and MySQL both use the same package for regular expressions (though MySQL uses the REGEXP syntax for the operator). sqlite actually doesn't include regular expressions out of the box, but it's trivial to plug in a function that is used by the operator. I think that Python's re expressions plugged in would be mostly compatible but is a superset, but I haven't looked through the syntaxes to be sure. Odds are that if you're not using some of the more esoteric features you'd be fine. Kevin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
