The "container", as you called it, are delimiters. They can be about any character you choose; but, stay away from preg
control characters. Personally, I use "%" most of the time.
It's a good habit to use delimiter characters that you can be certain will not be included in your strings. Then, you
don't need to worry about escaping them in your string.

I'm trying to use preg_match to find a string in a system path.
What I need to do is see if the string '/realtors' exists in a variable
named '$path'.
I know '/' is used as a container within the command itself. How do I
escape it to find the string '/realtors'?
Thanks,
Ed
