freelance84 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 if(eregi("^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$", $email)){ //email was valid } Trying to replace the eregi function with preg_match but i dont think its working. This is what i got: if(preg_match("^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$", $email)){ //this email is valid } What ever the content of $email in the preg_match version, it simply returns true... is the pattern wrong for preg_match? (patterns are no strong point of mine at the moment) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237512-eregi-to-preg_match/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
