It took me a while to discover that you must escape characters like parentheses (), square brackets [] and ^ (and maybe more) if you want to match these as a literal. Otherwise you may get some erratic outcome.



In summary, using a match anywhere in the string as an example:



<?php

$needle = "[";

$haystack = "some_array[]";

$test= mb_ereg_match(".*".$needle, $haystack);   // returns false and a php warning



$test= mb_ereg_match('.*'.preg_quote($needle), $haystack);   // returns true

?>

The behaviour of mb_ereg_match to imply a ^ at the beginning of the pattern stands in stark contrast to the behaviour of mb_ereg where ^ is NOT implied.



Switching between those two routines (because the need to extract a subpattern changes) requires careful consideration when to compensate for this surprising inconsistence.

Note that this function matches a string from the beginning only (though not necessarily till the end):



<?php



$test = mb_ereg_match("a", "some apples"); // returns false

$test = mb_ereg_match("a", "a kiwi");      // returns true



?>



If you want to check for a match anywhere in the string, use the wild-card & repeat operators .*



<?php



$test = mb_ereg_match(".*a", "some apples"); // returns true



?>
