Re: What may be wrong with ereg...

Sylwester > My ereg expression is: > ereg ( "/|\.\./|\\/", $HTTP_POST_FILES [ "filename" ] [ "name" ] > ) What are you trying to do? Any answer given at this point is pure speculation. That regular expression looks bad, that's for sure. Also, what you have there looks more like an expression for preg as opposed to ereg. What that expression you wrote does is return true if the file name evaluated contains any of the following character combinations: / ../ \/ Is that what you want? I doubt it.
