I can't see what you're getting at, but I can't convert it into a working example: matches('hello', 'a?e?f?m?r?r?')" returns true, which suggests the regex needs work... but I don't know regex's well enough to correct it. -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/
