Re: [PHP-DB] what's wrong with this ereg?
Well, one thing is you've got mismatched parentheses. You need another another opening paren right after the "if". Also, don't you need to escape the last hyphen in your character sets? As well as the . before the third character set? -Steve On Tuesday, August 20, 2002, at 11:11 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I am trying an email verification function, like this: > > if (empty($useremail)) || !eregi("^[A-Za-z0-9\_-]+@[A-Za-z0-9\_-] > +.[A-Za-z0-9\_-]+.*", $email)) > { >$errmsg .= "The email address appears to be invalid\n"; > } > > But it will not work, on one server I get this error: > Parse error: parse error in > /home/virtual/site109/fst/var/www/html/auth_dealers/user_input2.php on > line > 70 > and on another server I get this error: > Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_BOOLEAN_OR in > /usr/local/apache/htdocs/auth_dealers/user_input2.php on line 70 > > What do I need to do to fix this? > > -- > Chip Wiegand > Computer Services > Simrad, Inc > www.simradusa.com > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > "There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home." > --Ken Olson, president, chairman and founder of Digital Equipment > Corporation, 1977 > (They why do I have 9?

[PHP-DB] what's wrong with this ereg?
I am trying an email verification function, like this: if (empty($useremail)) || !eregi("^[A-Za-z0-9\_-]+@[A-Za-z0-9\_-] +.[A-Za-z0-9\_-]+.*", $email)) { $errmsg .= "The email address appears to be invalid\n"; } But it will not work, on one server I get this error: Parse error: parse error in /home/virtual/site109/fst/var/www/html/auth_dealers/user_input2.php on line 70 and on another server I get this error: Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_BOOLEAN_OR in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/auth_dealers/user_input2.php on line 70 What do I need to do to fix this? -- Chip Wiegand Computer Services Simrad, Inc www.simradusa.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] "There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home." --Ken Olson, president, chairman and founder of Digital Equipment Corporation, 1977 (They why do I have 9?
