PHP is server-side so it can't be accomplished via PHP, but it can via JavaScript. Google for something like 'javascript validate numeric'. Here's JS script that limits entry to alphanumeric characters. I've seen better JS code to do the same so if it's not suitable keep looking. http://javascript.internet.com/forms/val-char.html -- Steve Werby President, Befriend Internet Services LLC http://www.befriend.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
