hmm, I thought that was dependant on the remaining chars within the class, much like not needing to escape a '.' char if it was the last (or within the last "non-sequential" set of chars)?

I may be wrong, but this is how I've always understood it. If I am, then I've learnt something too

Well, I made a mistake. While testing your example above I used " " (SPACE) instead of "\s" (because "[\s-.]" does not work for Ruby). However, in PHP (and Perl) it works - your regexp should work too by accident.

Consider this:
php5 -r 'echo preg_match("/^[ -.]$/", "+");' # => 1
Character class. Match because PLUS is between SPACE and DOT (man ascii).

php5 -r 'echo preg_match("/^[ .-]$/", "+");' # => 0
No character class.

Again, I used " " instead of "\s"

Thanks splattael

I ran a few tests on the cmdline like your post above and I do see the difference. Mine also works fine using a space char _if_ I escape the '-' char at the end, but I didn't for the above code.

Thanks for pointing this out, I'll remember it for the future

Regards,

Ian

I was going over this, and I found that it does not get the address (100 Address Ave), cross streets (Street Ln / Road Pl), or Map Location (M-10) in any of the examples posted. Anyone have any clue on how we can do this?

I've added support for the Map Location by myself (You have no idea how proud I am of myself, but the rest seem to be beyond me.)

/^\*{2}([a-zA-Z0-9\s]+)\*{2} (\[*.*\])*.*? [b]- ([A-Z]-[0-9]{2})[/b] IN: ([a-zA-Z0-9\s.-]+) TOA: ([0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2})/
