Simplier would be if you used regular expressions - it would look like this:
<?php
if(!ereg("^[\. a-zA-Z]{1,}$", $name)) die("Error: Name contains unallowed
chars");
?>
See http://mirrors.inway.cz/manual/en/ref.regex.php
Good REGEX reference: http://www.regular-expressions.info/reference.html
Good luck.
