Question

[marcus]

Is it possible to check if the same value of the submitted field are the same values?

[code]
<?php
$str = $_POST['num'];

if(strlen($str) > 0 && strlen($str) < 5){
    //then check if the field is the same value (like 4444,3333,1111)
}
?>
[/code]

I could be way off..because I'm not sure exactly what you are talking about. But like if you have a password and a confirm password?
This is what I did:
[code]
if($password == $confirm_pw) {
//Action here
}
[/code]

If that's not what you are talking about then I apologize ^_^.

Like, if the four values present are the same value, it would echo off like values are alike.

Hmm, no idea on that one, sorry :(.

Just get the first character, build a regexp out of it, and look for any non-matching chars.

You're going to have to clarify on that a bit...

Do you mean check the length then see if the value for the length is the actual value repeated that many times????

<?php
$str = $_POST['num']
$length = strlen($str);

if(($str == $length) && ($str == str_repeat($length, $length))){
  //Condition is true
}
?>

I think that will work.

Of course that will only work on numbers under 10

This should work to see if all characters in the field are the same:
[code]
<?php
  $str = $_POST['num'];
  $char1 = substr($str,0,1); //grabs the first character of the string
  if (preg_match("/^[$char1]*$/",$str)) { //checks to see if $str begins and ends with $char1 and only contains $char1
    //condition is true
  }
?>
[/code]

Matched these test conditions - 11111,44444,aaaaa
Didn't match these - 111211,444442,Aaaaaa
