note 48760 added to function.eregi

@ mmc at nospam dot dk Nice thinking!! But just a slight remark. This function isn't so general as you say.. f.e.: example@yahoo.co.uk. Here is $regs[2] == yahoo.co , so 'Error: Can't find the host ' Therefor just a little change in the code: <? if( !eregi("^[a-z0-9]+([_\\.-][a-z0-9]+)*" ."@([a-z0-9]+([\.-][a-z0-9]{1,})+)*$", $mail, $regs) ) { echo "Error: '$mail' isn't a valid mail address!\n"; } elseif( gethostbyname($regs[2]) == $regs[2] ) { echo "Error: Can't find the host '$regs[2]'!<br>\n"; } ?> Now you have a fine working mail validation.. (as far as i know =) ) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.eregi.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+48760 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48760&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48760&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48760&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48760&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48760&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48760&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+48760&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
