Hello,
 I am trying to split a string that contains parentheses; the aim here is
 to keep the part that's before the opening parenthese:
 
 the string (quoted here) is "36 (72 cm)"
 First I want to know if the string contains at least an openning
 parenthese; if it does, I split it and extract the first token (ie "36 ").
 My code follows
 
 if (preg_match("/\(/", $sPermutationName)) {
 $tokens = explode("\(", $sPermutationName);
 $sPermutationName = $tokens[0];
 }
 
 but that does not work. Would anyone care to enlighten me on this one?
