thanks for correction- my regex is not too great... i thought the {0,1} specified the first place on the substring (spec'ing it as an a-zA-Z) and then the + \d part was spec'ing only digits for the substring 1-8 {1,8} making it only 9 chars long... obviously not- so what do the {}'s mean?

Edit: Also are regex's standardized across languages (do you know)?
