Hi there, i'm change to another server using php 5.1.6 and mysql 5.0.27

I try using:
/ALT-([\w]+)/
/ALT-([\p]+)/
/ALT-([\pL]+)/
/ALT-([\p{L}]+)/i
/ALT-([\p{L}]+)/iu

I can't associate any char with utf-8 chars like alt "Târner" with public note "ALT-Tärnêr" to main "Tärnêr".

What can do to get correct results with regex ?

(Sure its a PleegWat post thanks for your time)

Hm, looks about right. You'll be wanting one of the last three. You have been doing upload relations (twice!) after each setting change right?

EDIT: Can you get me a site link, so I can look at your debug page?

I send you the link and password to test my site by a PM

Recieved. It's funny: That regex should work on that php version, but it doesn't. Not sure what's causing it. I'm starting to think in the direction of it not being compiled in intentionally for some reason, but that's stupid.

The debug page is useful for stuff like this because it does on-the-fly parsing of the notes under the active regex, so you can see what the regex is actually producing. And it's just not processing the special chars...

Well, because i get all "rare" thinks that should be working but not works xD

Also you can look the addon keys not showing lockpicking habilities from rogues.

I have this problem as well with the alt not updating relations to a main with a ø in his name. PHP 4.4.7 and MySQL 4.1.20.

In the update relations log it is cutting off the Main name before the ø. It looks like it should work but it isn't getting the full main name in there properly for some reason. It says on the alt for example:

Altname - Main: Themainsøname - Alt of Themains - Invalid main - Mainless alt

The alt is even indented like its an alt on the list but has a red MA beside it. Maybe thats why its indented though.

Also, just curious, how come we have to updated relations twice? Shouldn't it just update twice automatically?

One last thing... is it possible to make the main/alt relations based on the name or number of the rank? I saw a part somewhere but it doesn't seem to work. The rank is Alt but I cant figure out how to use just that.

You can't update just based on the rank, because it also needs to know exactly who the name is.
The display you describe is the standard displays for 'Mainless alts'.

The actual matching problem is a regex issue. You could try [\S]+ or even .+ instead of [\w]+, but those may well match too much text.

Well there are lots of people with non english characters in their name. I think this thing should support it don't you?

And I am not sure why it isn't possible to use the guild rank while it compares the name. It can't just somehow compare the name at the same time as the guild rank? Maybe I can figure out some way to modify it if I can figure out where it does this main/alt relations at.

MemebersList can only match players with with non English characters with php 4.4+ or 5.1+
This is a limitation in the regex/utf-8 matching before these php versions

I have PHP 4.4.7. So I tried your suggestion to replace \w with \S and it worked!

Thanks =)

Note: In my Officer Notes I have them formated for alts as Alt-TheAltName and for Mains it just says Main.

With "\S" works for me fine...

But where is the problem of accept any char?

I don't understand the question.
