Note Submitter: zzz15 at op dot pl ---- Here's an extended pattern for email veritication: <?php if (!eregi("^([a-z]{1})([a-z0-9]*)([\.|_|-]?)([a-z0-9]*)([@]{1}) ([a-z0-9]*)([\.|_|-]?)([a-z0-9]*)([\.]{1})([a-z]{2,5})$",$email)) print "Invalid email!"; else print "all is ok!<br />$email"; ?> It's true for: aa@aa.aa aa.aa@aa.aa aa_aa@aa.aa aa-aa@aa.aa aa@aa.aa.aa aa@aa-aa.aa aa@aa_aa.aa aa.aa@aa.aa.aa aa-aa@aa.aa.aa ... you get the picture. Anything else will return error message. I thought it'd be a nice addition to add test for numbers dashes, underscore and dots at the beginning of email.
