note 51683 added to function.preg-match

satch666 writed fix for the function valid_ipv4(), but it's not working good. I think that this code is realy functionaly. <? $num="([0-9]|[0-9]{2}|1\d\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])"; /* [0-9] => numbers 0-9 [0-9]{2} => numbers 0-99 --> This is missing in satch666 code. It means, that if you write IP 25.213.110.1 function return FALSE! 1\d\d => numbers 100-199 2[0-4]\d => numbers 200-249 25[0-5] => numbers 250-255 */ if (!preg_match("/^$num\.$num\.$num\.$num$/", $$ip_addr)) echo "Wrong IP Address\n"; ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+51683 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51683&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51683&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51683&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51683&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51683&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+51683&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
