hello-
I have a pretty easy question for some of you. I'm using the ereg function and it's not
returning a true or false after it runs. Below is the code snippet I'm using.
echo ereg("^[a-zA-Z]$", $fname);
as you can see I'm just looking to make sure the variable $fname just has characters a-zA-Z and
nothing else. Anyway, I'm running PHP 4.0.5 and I'm using the ereg function else where
and it seems to work fine.
Thanks,
Jay Paulson
