I'm wondering two things:
1. Is there a performance difference between ereg() and eregi()? I'm
thinking it might be better to change [a-z] to [\w].
2. I know \w covers [a-zA-Z] but does it cover anything else?

I couldn't find anything, but I was pretty sure it had been discussed
before as well. Happen to know the subject of the thread?
