I can use fnmatch() http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fnmatch.php, which handles shell wildcards but it doesn't work on non-posix systems. Php.net do offer a preg_match based replacement but that requires rewriting the class here and there. I noticed a few more bugs in it so I am going to put a new version on the blog next week. @Deepak,
