BUG-Report:

preg_match("/^([abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz???? \-])+$/i",$input)

does not Match on "?hringen", or "dhdg?fdhh", but on "L?rrach".

I think it is a problem of case sensitivity.

Solutions:
use:preg_match("/^([abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz??????? \-])+$/i",$input[Ort])
or 
install PHP 4.0.8 (no problems)

Can you try if it works with PHP4.2.0rc1 from www.php.net/~derick ?
(And where did you find php 4.0.8? That did never exist :)

Sorry, there was an error in my bug-Report.

There is no 4.0.8 ver. of PHP, of course!

But it works all fine with 4.0.6 on a Windows machine.

Can you still try the RC from www.php.net/~derick/ ?

No,I can?t check with PHP4.2.0rc1 , because it?s not my webserver.

The server is from an ISP.

You have the set the proper locale first, e.g. setlocale(LC_ALL, 'de_DE'); .

Marking this as a documentation problem as I couldn't find a note on the preg_match() and on the general PCRE manual page.

ok, thank you very much. Now everything is working fine.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
