Re: m.ozarek's isIpMask() function You might want to adjust your preg_match line from: if(preg_match("/[0-9].[0-9].[0-9].[0-9]/",$mask)){ to if(preg_match("/[0-9]++\.[0-9]++\.[0-9]++\.[0-9]++/",$mask)){ this should properly match up to 3 characters per octet and require that the periods be periods not just any character. I tested against a handful of IPs, and it seemed to match fine, and did not allow a 7 digit number to be considered a mask to check. This is probably more useful if doing a match against a regular IP than against the subnet mask, but its always good to have more layers of checking. *note.. not all applications support the regex + metacharacter. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ip2long.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+59910 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59910&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59910&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59910&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59910&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59910&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59910&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59910&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+59910&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
