[PHP] Problems with pattern matching

[Alec Smith]

I'm attempting to get something like the following to match anything from 
aol.com so that I can handle AOL users differently than users from other 
ISPs:

    $hostname = gethostbyaddr($REMOTE_ADDR);

    if (eregi(".*\.aol\.com.*", $hostname))
    {
        echo $hostname;
        echo "AOHell user";
    }
    else
    {
        echo $hostname;
        echo "Not on AOHell";
    }

However, the else condition is always the one which is always executed. Any 
ideas why? I'll admit to being somewhat weak when it comes to regular 
expressions.

Thanks,
Alec
