[users@httpd] Regular expressions in rewrites differs by version?

[David Hubbard <dh...@dino.hostasaurus.com>]

Hello everyone, can someone tell me if the regular
expression support has changed between 1.3 and 2.0
where some escape sequences don't work in the former,
such as \w, \d, etc.

Thanks,

David

Yes. Apache 1.3.x uses POSIX Extended while apache 2.x uses the PCRE 
library.
But that is documented in the changes2.0-notes as well.
