note 28817 deleted from function.ereg by kennyt

Note Submitter: sev_95 at yahoo dot com ---- I'm in the ski business and had to do one to verify shoe size entry. This regex will accept digits from 1 to 19 by itself, or 1 to 19 with an optional .0 or .5 on the end, it wont accept greater than 19 or .1 .4, etc. only .0 or .5 (Shoes only have half sizes). $f_value = <your shoe size>; if(!ereg('^([1]{1}[0-9]{1}|[1-9]{1})(\.[05])?$' ,$f_value)) { echo "Invalid Input"; exit; } Not that anyone will be able to use this exactly, but I found reading what other people have done helps me understand regex better. Hope this helps, Scott
