matt.sisto Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I am trying to use preg_match to prevent url spam from my message form, but this doesn't work. Any help appreciated. <?php require "dbconn2.php"; $from = $_POST['email']; $sender = $_POST['name']; $message = $_POST['body']; $to = '[email protected]'; $headers = "From: $from"; $spamMessage = "No URLs permitted"; if (preg_match("http/i", "$message")) { echo $spamMessage; exit(); } else { mail($to, $sender, $message, $headers); header("Location: technical.php"); exit(); } ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>?Message Consultant</title> </head> <body> </body> Thanks and regs.
