note 27326 added to function.is-numeric

If you want to make sure that a variable contains only one or more numbers as in the range 0-9, you could use this: eregi("[^0-9]",$var) This checks your variable for anything that is NOT in the range 0-9. If you use is_numeric() while checking an IP address, you should not be surprised if the following is accepted as a valid IP: 1e13.3.4.12e3 -> is_numeric() considers 1e13 and 12e3 as valid numeric values (which is correct). Have fun.
