Dave -- ...and then Dave G said... % % PHP Gurus, % I have an eregi() function that I'm using to validate emails % that users enter into a form. I pretty much took it directly from the % book "PHP and MySQL Web Development". It looks like this: % (!eregi('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', $email)
1) Constructing an all-compatible email expression is darned near impossible. See the archives for a recent discussion of this. 2) Sure enough, you don't allow "+" extensions in yours. Neener neener :-) 3) You might check out preg_match, which the manual says is often faster than ereg(). 4) To include '-' in a range list, put it last in the range.
