ereg() not working as expected...

Recommended Posts

This doesn't seem to allow CAPITOL letters...
[code]
if(!ereg("^[_a-z0-9-]+(.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(.[a-z0-9-]+)*(.[a-z]{2,3})$",$email)
[/code]

How do I fix it?

I did this, and it works... isn't there a better way to tell it to ignore Capitols?
[code]
if(!ereg("^[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+(.[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*(.[a-zA-Z]{2,3})$",$email)
[/code]

If you're trying to ignore all capital letters, [^A-Z] should do it just fine..

no silly he's trying to allow 'a-z A-Z 1-9 . a-z A-Z 1-9 @ a-z A-Z 1-9 . a-z A-Z 1-9' and underscores

anyway, there is no other way that i know of bud.. but a great regex it was [=
