Re: preg_match and Hebrew?

Zend operates out of some pretty swank offices in Ramat Gan. So I doubt the PHP core team would be able to get very far without keeping some kind of Hebrew support. 2009/8/4 Yuval Hager > Let's try some regex matching in PHP. > , > | php > echo preg_match('/\w/', 'a'); > | 1 > ` > > ok,

eTextBooks (for kids)

2009-09-07 Thread Justin
Is there a place to buy electronic versions of textbooks for (israeli) school children? The schools don't have places for kids to keep their books on premises, so they have to schlep all their books all day long. They are heavy. I'd rather they carried a small laptop or e-book reader. Any ideas?

The problem isn't the writers making money, it's the publishers. A text book, even in a "small" market like Israel will go out to tens of thousands of children a year. An author could make a lucrative living just by selling the eText for a few shekels, certainly much less than is payed now for the

I switched yesterday to Comm.net.il from Interal/Eliat Internet after they switched their hardware to Bezeq. Comm.net.il is slightly more expensive, about as much as a Bezeq line plus the gamer package. But considerably out performs the Bezeq equivalent even at lower listed speeds. They do not a
