There not much documentation in the online manual about eregi. Apart from the usage I need to know more about what regx it uses,
in the linux shell , using grep i got it right for my needs .. I want to find and reject content with email address .. [desiredating@opie desiredating]$ echo "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" | grep "@*\." [EMAIL PROTECTED] [desiredating@opie desiredating]$ echo "meet me @ 8" | grep "@*\." ----------- the above is correct and fine , but see below , it doesnt work in php ( the same regular expression doesnt ) if (eregi("@.\.",$about_me)) { include "error_msg/error_email_in_profile.php"; $error =1 ; } -------- What regular expression do i neep to use , is there any reference out there to tell me ? Urls / info is greatly appreciatted. Thanks in advance !! Neil -- Totally FREE dating site. FREE all-inclusive lifetime membership when you join today Meet and date new people.
