How to solve the use of deprecated function ereg() of PHP 5.3.0 in Drupal 6.13

Question

Anyone knows how to solve the error below?

Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in C:\\wamp\\www\\includes\\file.inc on line 895

Answer 1

Because I don't have time to update legacy code, I addeded following line to php code to suppress warnings.

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_DEPRECATED);

this line suppress only deprecated warnings. other errors are shown as usual.
