[SOLVED] HELP - Preg match error

[shedokan]

here is the line of the script:

	  elseif(!preg_match("#^(http:\/\/www\.address\.com\//dir\//dir\//)+([a-zA-Z0-9])+(\.gif/)$#i" , $v1)) {

 

and here's the error I get:

Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Unknown modifier 'h' in bla...bla...bla... on line 258

 

thanks.

No error on my server...  (PHP 5.2.0)

 

Try it this way tho, much cleaner:

elseif(!preg_match("#^http:\/\/www\.address\.com\/dir\/dir\/[a-z0-9]+\.gif$#i" , $v1)){

when I try to put this address it returns false:

http://www.address.com/dir/dir/image.gif

Are the spaces within your regex string a forum quirk?  If not, try removing the spaces.

when I try to put this address it returns false:

http://www.address.com/dir/dir/image.gif

I get a match...

thanks.

but I need that "_" are allowed and capitl letters too.

[Orio]

Capital letters are allowed in th current version. And if you want to allow underscores, add an underscore into the square brackets. In overall, it should be:

 

|^http:\/\/www\.address\.com\/dir\/dir\/[a-z0-9_]+\.gif$|i

Thanks!, and May I ask the last two things?

1, why did you replaced the # at the sart with |?

2, is it possible to do this with javascript?

[Orio]

I don't like # hehe. No special reason.

I don't know how to do that in javascript, but I am sure it's possible since javascript supports regex.

 

Orio.

[shedokan]

ow and forgot I need -'s too.

thank Orio your'e the best.
