Looks like you are trying to nest an if.. inside the conditional of another if.
That doesn't work.
I think what you are wanting here is this
if ( getmxrr($domaintld,$mxrecords) &&
fsockopen($domaintld,25,$errno,$errstr,30) ) {
The following works, but needs the conditional mentioned...
<?php
$email = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$valid="";
function validate_email($email)
{
// Create the syntax of email with validation regular expression
$regexp =
"^([_a-z0-9-]+)(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@([a-z0-9-]+)(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,4})$";
// Presume that the email is invalid
$valid = false;
// Validate the syntax
if (eregi($regexp, $email))
{
list($username,$domaintld) = split("@",$email);
// Validate the domain
if (getmxrr($domaintld,$mxrecords))
$valid = true;
}
// attempts a socket connection to mail server
if(fsockopen($domaintld,25,$errno,$errstr,30)) {
$valid = true;
} else {
$valid = false;
}
return $valid;
}
if (validate_email($email))
echo "Email is valid!";
else
echo "Email is invalid!";

You don't need to write the second 'if', just wrap the two conditionals
in parentheses:
if ( getmxrr($domaintld,$mxrecords) &&
fsockopen($domaintld,25,$errno,$errstr,30) )
$valid = true;
You could equally use nested conditionals:
if (getmxrr($domaintld,$mxrecords)) {
if (fsockopen($domaintld,25,$errno,$errstr,30))
$valid = true;
}
There is no need for the second $valid = false in your code below, since
you define that at the start.

If your script is using that regular expression to validate email addresses
then your script is most definitely not working.

I'm wrong or if I try to use my mail address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) it
will be rejected?
My e-mail address isn't in format [EMAIL PROTECTED]

ok, here's a few perfectly valid email addresses off the top of my
head. The first one's especially annoying as I use it a lot. The last
one's not so common but can be useful if you've got broken dns.

There is safety in numbers! While a lot of these fields may not ever
contain anything that would need to be escaped the name fields and
comments field would definitely need this. Also, if this is filled out
by 'external' users you do not want them to be able to enter anything
(like a SQL injection attack in the comments field) that might cause a
problem of some sort. Another option would be htmlentities()

ALWAYS escape user submitted data. Just because you expect a certain
input doesn't mean some Mr. Malicious posted it to your form. That said,
addSlashes() is insecure for database queries. You should use the
database specific escape function to properly escape content that is DB
bound.
Cheers,
Rob.

More than likely what they were trying to do is prep/escape the data for
insertion into the DB.
a better thing to use would be the actually DB escape function.
Mysql http://us2.php.net/mysql_real_escape_string
Other DB implementations have similar functions
This will escape the data for insertion into a DB, but do it on all chars that needed to be escaped.
Where addSlashes() works on only a subset of most of the chars that need escaping.

I like to think that I'm reasonably aware of the limitations of floating
point (famous last words).
To my mind, the ridiculousness (probably not a word) of the example is
highlighted by the fact that 75.81 and 75.83 work perfectly.

Guys,
Got a quick question. I got a sql statement works when I pass it from
the cli. but if I try in php I get nothing.
This is the statement.
Select ip, date, time, CONCAT(city, ', ',country) as location from ips
where country !=' ' and date='`date +%Y%m%d`' order by country asc;
I know it has to do with date='`date +%Y%m%d`', because if I remove it
works.
Any clue as to why?

PHP also supports the that.
However, I think the OP's problem is that it's inside other quotes and
is therefore not being executed. But, as someone else pointed out, you
should be using the PHP date function to get the date from within PHP.

Your best bet is to use flash. Flash has the ability to access user's
microphones built in. And since flash is cross platform it works on
everything. Also it's pretty simple to do.
http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictionary/actionscript_dictionary479.html
explains a bit of Microphone.get. You will want to use this with a Flash
Communications server. I think that should let you save the audio.
One thing that you may not have thought of though. Do users really want to
be using your flash or whatever script to record their audio? Wouldn't it
be nice if they could record it using their own recorder, for example on
windows there's sound recorder built right in. Then they could have a few
takes and upload the best one. And all you would have to do is handle the
mp3 or wav upload.

A client of mine wants a simple audio recorder for users to record a short

Your dev box should only match in software versions (okay, and any
really funky specialized hardware like a hardware random number
generator MAYBE).
Regarding duplicating the box versus software:
I'm working on a C++ project on a Mac Pro and a MacBook Pro.
Phew!
When I archived my sources and makefiles rather than reproducing them from
memory, it built the same successfully on both. As I would hope.

I'm trying to pull all the components out of strings structured like:
word followed by any number of ( dot word or square bracketed string )
This is an example: foo.bar[ab.cd].baz
>From the above example, I want: array('foo', 'bar', 'ab.cd', 'baz');
A regular expression to match these strings, including parenthesis
around the parts I want to pull out:
preg_match('/(^\w+)(?:\.(\w+)|\[([^]]+)\])*/', $subject, $matches);
However applied to the above example:
$matches[1] = 'foo'; // First subexpression
$matches[2] = 'baz'; // Last value of second subexpression
$matches[3] = 'ab.cd'; // Last value of third subexpression
I'm not sure how to get an array of all subexpression matches, in the
order matches appear in the subject, instead of the order expressions
appear in the pattern.
I think I might be able to do something using the Perl (?{code})
construction, e.g. ...(?:\.(\w+)(?{$parts[] = \2})|\[([^]]+)(?{$parts[]
= \3})\])*... but I haven't thought about it too much because PHP
doesn't support this construction.
Any ideas much appreciated. Thanks, Jack

I've installed IIS (Internet information services on my windows XP machine.
I've also installed php 5.0 from www.php.net. I'm trying to use the mail()
function in a simple php script which uses a html form. However, i'm not able
to send the mail using the mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); function. I
wonder what's wrong. Please help, i'm new to php.

Check to see if you can send mail out of your server aside from the php
script. Also, check the logs: error_log, maillog, messages to see what's
wrong with the script or the mail function. I'm not sure if these logs exist
on IIS or where they are.
