[wenxi]

just like to ask if this function is workabkle?

 

 

if (!ereg("^[a-zA-Z0-9\]{3,50}$", $_REQUEST['tfaddress']))

{

$adderr = "* Please Enter a valid address name that only contain letter, space and -";

$error++;

}

 

 

for examp my address is "1234 singapore 59 orchard boulevard"

You have a '\' infront of the ']'. Not correct. Should be a space in between I guess.

 

You sure some adresses arent longer than 50? Btw, I should seperate streetname (with or without house number (can be seperate)), city, province, country, postal code

so what is the code like? If i want to chunk them all up?

 

if (!ereg("^[a-zA-Z0-9-]{3,100}$", $_REQUEST['tfaddress']))

        {

            $adderr = "* Please Enter a valid address name that only contain letter, space and -";

            $error++;

        }

If you wanna validate Urls You can use this

if (preg_match('/(?P<protocol>\w+):\/\/(?P<domain>[-A-Z0-9.]+)(?P<file>\/[-A-Z0-9+&@#\/%=~_|!:,.;]*)?(?P<parameters>\\?[-A-Z0-9+&@#\/%=~_|!:,.;]*)?/i', $url, $m)) {
print_r($m);//Matched
} else {
//Not Matched
}

Hope it helps.
