FreeBSD finally updated the website. I wrote about the new website 10 months ago, I guess it took more than they expected 😉
The new website look modern, but the logo still old.

🙂

MBC will broadcast an Arabic version of the Simpons, Mohammed Heaindi will play Homer Simpson, it will broadcast in Ramadan Month.
Couldn’t wait for it 🙂

Tadawul returned powered by SAUDI NET logo once again.

This is a nice regular expression feature, sometime when you have complex regular expression, you could forget what each refer to:

$str = '2005-08-01';
preg_match('/(\d{4})-(\d{1,2})-(\d{1,2})/', $str, $m);

Now you don’t know which group is which part in the regular experssion.

Instead you can name all groups by using the format (?P<name>pattern) instead of just (pattern), then you can access this group by name you assigned it, so the previous regular experssion could be written like:

preg_match('/(?P<year>\d{4})-(?P<month>\d{1,2})-(?P<day>\d{1,2})/', $str, $m);
