After using { function valid_name($name) // check ifa name is possibly valid if(ereg("^[A-Z][A-Za-z\ \-]+$", $name)) return true; else return false; } I want a bit more sophistication: 1) capital characters must be preceeded by space 2) space must be followed by a capital letter I tried replacing A-Z in [A-Za-z\ \-]+ by \ A-Z etc but it failed to function as I want. Thank you very much in advance.
