I got the following code in a script I'm testing, but it seams to not verify all good e-mail address as valid. echo "old email = ".$row[email]."<br>"; if (ereg("^([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+@([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+(\.[a-zA-Z0-9_-])+" or "^([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+@([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+(\.[a-zA-Z0-9_-])+(\.[a-zA-Z0-9_-])+",$email)){ $email = "none"; } else { $email = $row[email]; } echo "new email = ".$email."<br>"; It verifies "mullen4@marshall.edu" but not spooner@umr.edu it verifies "rhettbean@mindspring.com" but not joshjenkins@mindspring.com for a look at the results, check out http://www2.ripcon.net/members/datacopy.php I'm stumped. Can someone shed light on this? Kenneth R Zink II Hellcat1@S-Series.Org ICQ# 5095094 '87 2.8L TBI GMC S-15 Ext.
