In the HTML form did you set the size to 2 or the maxlength? Maxlength is the one that limits the number of chars for a field. -gav. | -----Original Message----- | From: Malcolm [mailto:malcolm@mbrownell.com] | Sent: Wednesday, 7 May 2003 10:17 PM | To: php-general@lists.php.net | Subject: [PHP] limit form input digits | | | | | Hello All, | | I'm trying to limit to 99 the amount of times this prints ; | | if (ereg ("([^0-9]{2})", $incre)) { | echo "bad input"; | } else { | echo "Printing now ...<br>"; | } | | Reading the manual and the comments I thought the {2} would do that, | but it doesn't.
