bigD Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 OK, I am officially stumped. I am trying to match a '[]' at the end of a string. Using $ to anchor doesn't work, nor does \z. $name = "cities[]"; if (preg_match("/\[\]\z/", $name)) { // why do I net get in here?? } Thanks.

requinix Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Works for me. Is that your actual code or did you try to simplify it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigD Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Works for me. Is that your actual code or did you try to simplify it? That is my actual code, except for hardcoding $name, which I output on debug, and it is correct... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 And you're sure it's correct? Doesn't have spaces or newlines at the end? preg_match("/\[\]\z/", trim($name)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was getting stale data from a mentally challenged programmer. All is well. How do I close/mark solved this thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
