Hi there,
I am camping with a little regular expressions problem...
Problem: I want to check if $variable begins with a * (star), and it doesn't matter if
it starts with plenty of spaces...
My solution:
ereg("^[:space:]*\*",$variable)
But, it doesn't seem to work with the space part... The regex:
ereg("^\*",$variable)
does work, but that doesn't include spaces at the start... How can I extend this one
so that it doesn't matter if there are a lot of spaces at the begin?
Thanks in advance,
Leon Mergen
