mb_ereg_search
Hebrew regex tested on PHP 5, Ubuntu 8.04.
Seems to work fine without the mb_regex_encoding lines (commented out).
Didn't seem to work with \uxxxx (also commented out).
<?php
echo "Line ";
//mb_regex_encoding("ISO-8859-8");
//if(mb_ereg(".*([\u05d0-\u05ea]).*", $this->current_line))
if(mb_ereg(".*([א-ת]).*", $this->current_line))
{
echo "has";
}
else
{
echo "doesn't have";
}
echo " Hebrew characters.<br>";
//mb_regex_encoding("UTF-8");
?>

mb_ereg — Regular expression match with multibyte support
Description
int mb_ereg
( string $pattern
, string $string
[, array $regs
] )
Executes the regular expression match with multibyte support.
Parameters
- pattern
-
The search pattern.
- string
-
The search string.
- regs
-
Contains a substring of the matched string.
Return Values
Executes the regular expression match with multibyte support, and returns 1 if matches are found. If the optional regs parameter was specified, the function returns the byte length of matched part, and the array regs will contain the substring of matched string. The function returns 1 if it matches with the empty string. If no matches are found or an error happens, FALSE will be returned.
Notes
Note: The internal encoding or the character encoding specified by mb_regex_encoding() will be used as the character encoding for this function.
