I want to scan the variables passed from teh url of my script for non alpha characters. The variables should only consist of a-z A-Z 0-9 and spaces, full stops and commas (Basically I don't want scripts to be passed via the variable to the server) I've used perl a long time ago and its regular expressions seemed ideal for this kind of thing. Can enybody suggest a scrip to remove unwanted characters from my variable?
