Subject: regex \w allows non english characters

Hi everyone...
I'm looking for a way to only allow english characters through a
simple regex.
It seems that \w (altough the documentation states is equivalent to [a-
zA-Z0-9] still allows
non english characters (in my case hebrew).

Has anyone come up with a solution other than specifying [abcdef...]?

Thanks!
Ehud
