Regular expressions

[Cubehead]

Hi,

I'm running into regular expressions trouble (again). I need to check if a string is composed of 6 hexadecimal characters. In v3.2.0.1 I used something like

$nDummy = StringRegExp($strString, "^([:xdigit:]{6})$", 0). It worked perfectly.

In v3.2.1.14 the pattern is not valid, and the @extended error tells me that the pattern is invalid at the "[" character. Can someone help me fix my pattern ? Thanks in advance.

$nDummy = StringRegExp($strString, '^([0-9A-Fa-f]{6})$', 0)

$nDummy = StringRegExp($strString, '^([0-9A-Fa-f]{6})$', 0)

Thanks a lot SmOke_N and D'oh ! I should have paused and look at the problem with a little bit of distance and from another angle. Oh well.
