Hi All, First I would like to thank you all for help with my previous questions. I am still newbie but I learning and hopefully one day, I will be able to pay it back. I am getting the REG_ECTYPE warning in the following line which verifies email address: If (eregi("^([[:alnum:]]|_|\.|-)+@([[:alnum:]]|\.|-)+(\.)([a-z]{2,4}}$", $HTTP_POST_VARS[email])) { $e=TRUE; } else { $e=FALSE; } ..... Page is being completed and displayed but the warning is being displayed at the top op the page?? Also not matter what type of email I will enter, it does not pass this check point .. I know I must be blind ..
