[HTML_AJAX-devel] Problem with character escaping

[Miguel Manso]

Hi.

I need to save the following string: /^(+351)\d{9}$/

I am passing it through a html form using POST and HTML_AJAX.formSubmit.

When i grab the value on the PHP side through $_POST var i get: /^( 
351)\\d{9}$/

The double backslash i can understand and its easy to get rid of, but 
what i can't find a workaround is the + that just vanished...

I tried the same values on normal form with PHP's $_POST and got: 
/^(+351)\\d{9}$/
Still have the double backslash, but the + sign is still there.

Am i doing something wrong or is this suppose to be like this?

Thanks
