Robert,
Thank you for responding.
The extra slashes are to properly escape the backslash character since
you are using double quotes....
As I said you may want the following pattern in cases where no space
exists:
'#^([^\s]*)\s?(.*)$#'
Thank you for your detailed explanation. Especially with regards to the
impact of double quotes versus single quotes in an expression. I see now
that I most likely will find it simpler to use single quotes and avoid
having to escape characters excessively.
As you might have seen in a response of mine to another of your
postings, all this advice has come together, and my script now
accomplishes what I had hoped it would.
Thank you and the PHP list in general for the continued great support.
