[FX.php List] PHP question

[Gareth Evans]

What I sent will match any string ending in Œhall¹ (case-insensitive). Leo
is right that you should add a space to make it just Œhall¹ and if you want
it to be case-sensitive remove the i.

This is the revised one:
preg_match('/ Hall$/¹, $_POST['Department_Name'])

It will match any string ending in ³ Hall².
