note 38702 added to function.eregi

This is a simple function that uses eregi() function to validate a domain name (according to the RFC 1034). function check_host($host) { if ( eregi("^[[:alpha:]]+([-[:digit:][:alpha:]]* [[:digit:][:alpha:]])*(\.[[:alpha:]]+ ([-[:digit:][:alpha:]]*[[:digit:][:alpha:]])*) *$",$host) ) { return 1; } else return 0; }; NOTE: This expression must be written on a single line to work I had to brake it on separate lines to post on the site. Returns 1 if $host is an RFC compliant domain name else returns 0. This function is part of the code of blackboxed linux distribution coming on your screen late genuary. -fusillo- ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.eregi.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+38702 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+38702&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+38702&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
