PCRE only hanles Perl regex, not POSIX regex (neither basic or extended). While PCRE is mostly compatible with POSIX regex there is some subtle differences in more advanced corner cases. But most probably prefer Perl regex syntax anyway.. Both better documented, more consistent and easier to type.. Regards Henrik
