Eregi was depreciated and you should look at the alternative now.

 

As for this:

 

<?php echo $string = ($row_usersinfo['username']); language_filter($string);?> 

 

If your wanting to filter the username for profanity then you call your function like so:

 

<?php echo language_filter($row_usersinfo['username']);?> 

 

make sure your including the .php file that holds the function if it's outside the code your using.
