wp    php   Should do the trick    The    means  any character  repeated 0 or more times   The next   is escaped because it s a special character  and you want a literal period    php    Don t forget that if you re typing this in as a literal string in something like C   Java  etc   you need to escape the backslash because it s a special character in many literal strings
