[phpGroupWare-developers] ereg* functions now an extension in PHP

[Dave Hall]

Hi all,

In the upcoming PHP 5.3 and 6 releases the ereg* functions will be an
extension not in the core PHP engine.  The PCRE functions perform better
most of the time anyway.

I propose that all new code, and when code is being cleaned up that
ereg* calls be replaced with their PCRE equivalents.

If there is support for this, I am happy to add it to the coding
standards.

Cheers

Dave
