There's a space in your character class, so of course it will be among the characters matched/replaced. But merely deleting it from the character class doesn't solve the problem either, since a space character also meets the criteria for not a word character (\W).

I think ezmlm must strip underscores from messages, 'cuz a lot of posts (though, oddly, not all...) seem to be missing them from otherwise valid/functioning code. The function is named preg_replace (an underscore between the words), not preg replace (with a space). -- CC -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
