Chris, Ligaya, Dave,
Thank you for responding. I understand the difference in principle
between ereg and preg much better now.

! in perl regular expressions means "not" so you need to escape it:
\!
Still, when including that escape character, the following preg
expression does not find any matching text:
preg_replace("/<\!DOCTYPE(.*)<ul>/", "", $htmlPage);
Whereas this ereg expression does find a match:
ereg_replace("<!DOCTYPE(.*)<ul>", "", $htmlPage);
What do I need to do to make the preg expression succeed just as the
ereg expression does?
Thank you for your time and advice.
