I have been struggling for a couple of hours now trying to write a
preg_match expression to validate a dollar amount - the user may or may
not put in the decimals so I want to allow only digits plus a possible
period followed by two more digits. My eyes are now swimming and I just
can't seem to get right. This is what I have at the moment:

if (!preg_match("/[\d]+([\.]{1}[\d]{2})?/", $form_data[amount])) //
wrong amount

but it still allows invalid input. Can anyone help or is there a better
way to do it?

Thanks
Steve
