Problem with preg_match


gee

Recommended Posts

Hi I am trying to convert to the preg_match function form the ereg funcntion, but can't get past this message:

 

Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Delimiter must not be alphanumeric or backslash

 

return (ereg('MSIE ([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})', $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']));
return (preg_match('MSIE ([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})', $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']));

 

Any help would be much apperciated.

preg functions need so called delimiter around regular expression. Choose any character that is unlikely to appear in matched string. For example:

preg_match('#MSIE ([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})#', $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
