note 14124 added to function.ereg.php

Just when you thought email validation was a dead issue... the majority of email validation routines do not allow a period as the last character before the @, but such email addresses do exist (perhaps illegally).<br> So to update the routine posted by btcsux@yahoo.com above, use: if (eregi("^[0-9a-z]([-_.]?[0-9a-z]\.?)*@[0-9a-z]([-.]?[0-9a-z])*\\.[a-wyz][a-z](g|l|m|pa|t|u|v)?$", $email, $check)) http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ereg.php
