Description:
------------
Note the discussion of PCRE pattern delimiters on this version of the PCRE documentation:
http://us3.php.net/manual/hk/ref.pcre.php

Yet it is missing from the english version of the documentation:
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.pcre.php

I see this question about delimiters frequently in regex forums so if the delmiter details could be added to the english page I would appreciate it so I could tell users to reference that page.

Thanks.
-Doug.

It's all there... but better organized in en/. The hk/ uses the old style still (it has not updated since the restructure)...

Thanks for the pointer to that intro text.  I would have thought it to the be on the pattern syntax page as it states on the intro page, but in any case I will point users to http://www.php.net/manual/en/intro.pcre.php instead.
