It's rather lengthy, but I have provided it at http://www.normann.com/bug/buggy.txt Also, the whole function can be found at http://www.normann.com/bug/bug_code.txt Thank you for taking your time... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-12 11:00:03] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please provide sample of source text on which the regex operates. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-12 09:46:00] peter at normann dot com Description: ------------ php crashes when using the preg_match function. Code included below. Works in php4.3.3RC1 but any later version causes segmentation fault. The code is part of a text filter. $output contains text with plain text and html mixed. The idea is anything between [html] and [/html] will go untouched by the filter. I use dozens of other regular expressions, but preg_match is a sure killer. I can easily reproduce this behavior. Reproduce code: --------------- while (preg_match('/\[html]((.|\s)+?)\[\/html]/', $output, $htmlshow)) $output = str_replace($htmlshow[0], str_replace('<br />', '', strtr($htmlshow[1], array_flip(get_html_translation_table(HTML_ENTITIES)))), $output); Actual result: -------------- child pid xxxxx exit signal Segmentation fault (11) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26219&edit=1
