Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. You need to double escape it, or use single quotes.

If you build a Regular Ex. like this: /([^\\]\|\*\|)/ there will be come an error, because 'PHP' think I mean with [^\\] I want backslashing the ']' so it will be do a error, because he want an ']' because it backslashed ']'. But I want the char '\', because thats a Specialchar ;-). Reproduce code: --------------- <?php // Result in Perl : Test1 - Test2\|*|Test3 $string = "Test1|*|Test2\|*|Test3"; $split = preg_split("/([^\\]\|\*\|)/", $string); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Warning: Compilation failed: missing terminating ] for character class at offset 17 in D:\Apache2\htdocs\GG_Shoutbox\msg.class.php on line 17 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28138&edit=1
