Hi,

I'm having a wee problem with REGEX's.

I have the following line of text, of which I want to get rid of 
everything between and including the brackets.

C-FDRK (A320-211 84 204 AC) 2024 20040506 AC0632 (CYUL-CYHZ)

So far I have:
ereg_replace("\(.*.\) ","",$message[$i])

Which produces:

C-FDRK 2024 20040506 AC0632 (CYUL-CYHZ)

I know the '$' symbol is used for representing the end of a line, but 
how can I alter the above expression to basically say replace anything 
within brackets, if in the middle of text AND also if at the end of the 
line?

Here's hoping
Alexis
