in thread Naughty Regular Expressions and mod_perl

Hello?

In your rush to show how much you know about Regexes, you forgot what the original question was.

And the question was "do I have to suffer for the effects of naughty regexes if somebody else in the same environment is using them?"

The question WAS NOT "show me how smart you are with @+ and @-"

Ask around. Everybody in the Monastery believes that Ovid knows a few things about regexes and he wasn't waiting for your self-promoting remarks to come out of the darkness.

    The original question did provide context, including the fact that there was legacy code involved using the match vars. Tips for changing that code without having to substantially change the logic (always a good thing with legacy code) are certainly appropriate.

    I think a disclaimer about authorship is also appropriate; I would call it modesty, not self-promotion.
