StringRegExp with () fail

[inwmsn]

Hi All, I couldn't figure out why StringRegExp function returm fail if the expression is including "(someword)" here is my code

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IEAttach ("My Video")

$Text = _IEBodyReadText ($oIE)

If StringRegExp ($Text, "This is my (dog)") Then ;;;;===> It's fail when I use "(dog)"

MsgBox (0,"","FOUND")

Else

MsgBox (0,"","NOT FOUND")

EndIf

I got "NOT FOUND" but if I take "(dog)" out it FOUND like this

$oIE = _IEAttach ("My Video")

$Text = _IEBodyReadText ($oIE)

If StringRegExp ($Text, "This is my") Then ;;;;===> It's work when I take "(dog)" out

MsgBox (0,"","FOUND")

Else

MsgBox (0,"","NOT FOUND")

EndIf

Can somebody helping me. Thanks
