It just occured to me, the dollar sign inside double quotes " " should
propably be escaped, otherwise php might confuse it for a variable marker,
but the variable is missing. for example: "$cat" replaces $cat with the
value of the variable. here you have "$". Either escape it or use single
quotes. "^(.){15,400}\$" or '^(.){15,400}$'. But as I already said, using
strlen is much more simple way. If you have to use the regular expression
(can't think of a reason why though), you can fix it with that.
