PCRE got added after POSIX Regex had been in awhile. There was some resistance to having two Regexes in PHP. I think the default is "on" these days for PCRE. One viable reason to turn it "off" might be to conserve RAM -- I daresay PCRE takes up a goodly chunk of RAM for its codebase, if you're really scrimping and saving... This would make more sense in something like an embedded PHP app rather than shared hosting environment. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
