As we have a lot of russian members here, maybe someone can help: I couldn't find much information wether it's possible to check for cyrillic characters (А-Я) with a regular exp​ression in PHP. Any hints are highly appreciated!

Thanks!

Should be А-Яа-я

Thanks. Did you verify this? I thought there are some problems with UTF-8 + regex. A comment in the PHP manual says, that PCRE functions aren't UTF-8 safe. It states that you can only use mb_ereg* functions and need to alter this:

<?php
  mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8');
  mb_regex_encoding('UTF-8');
  setlocale(LC_ALL, 'fr-fr');

I'm talking about preg_ with unicode modifier, not ereg.

Ah, thanks a lot. Didn't know that one.

Maybe this will be useful as well...
