I can't cut the expression, i need the maximum complexity in the expression, because the user can write fine the first part of the expression and bad the second part, and the expression mustn't match.
And i don't know why the expression doesn't works, because y have this expression out of ranges and it works.
I see problems with spaces and tabs.
Thanks!

The subroutine returns 1 if the string s matches the last compiled regular expression, 0 if the string s failed to match the last compiled
regular expression, and -1 if the compiled regular expression was invalid (indicating an internal error).
The strings passed to both and may have trailing or embedded newline characters; they are terminated by nulls. The regular expressions
