yeah, both are equally non-functional.


I think what Jim intended was

eregi('(=")(pics/)([0-9A-Z_/\ %-]+\.[fgijnp]{3})(")'
,$htmlsource
,$imagesintext);


But thare's no law that images must have filenames that match that.

This: <img src="randompic.001.php">
is valid if the PHP sets content-type and emits a correctly formed inage...
