Actually I tried a variation of what you gave me before and it didnt work. I
couldnt get yours to validate thanks. heres what I used
<?php
if (getenv("REQUEST_METHOD") == "POST")
{
if (
eregi("^[a-z0-9\._-]+@+[a-z0-9\._-]+\.+[a-z]{2,3}$", $Email)
&& eregi("^[a-z0-9]$", $FirstName)
&& eregi("^[a-z0-9]$", $LastName)
)
{
echo "thanks";
}
else
{
echo "error!";
}
}
?>
This is directly after the form using the registered vars $Email,
$FirstName, $LastName. So I dunno whats wrong..
