[SOLVED] If and ElseIf

[Daney11]

Hey guys,

 

Im using

 

if (eregi ('^[[:alpha:]\.\'\-]{2,80}$', stripslashes(trim($_POST['result_link'])))) {
   $result_link = escape_data($_POST['result_link']);
} else {
   $result_link = FALSE;
   $errors[] = 'Please Enter A Link';
       }

which is working fine. BUT im not sure how to add 2 links into it.

for example.

if (eregi ('^[[:alpha:]\.\'\-]{2,80}$', stripslashes(trim($_POST['result_link'])), stripslashes(trim($_POST['result_link1'])), )) {
   $result_link = escape_data($_POST['result_link']);
} else {
   $result_link = FALSE;
   $errors[] = 'Please Enter A Link';
       }

 

doesnt work.

 

ANyone any ideas?

 

Thanks

Check the documentation for eregi, it only takes 1 string parameter http://uk3.php.net/eregi

If you want to perform this eregi comparison on more than one string, i.e. secret line and secret link1

then you need to do it for each of them.

e.g.

if (eregi ('^[[:alpha:]\.\'\-]{2,80}$', stripslashes(trim($_POST['result_link']))) && eregi ('^[[:alpha:]\.\'\-]{2,80}$', stripslashes(trim($_POST['result_link1'])))) { ...

What Error?

Maybe you should split this out into a function and use that instead...

 

function performTest($value){
  $value = stripslashes($value);
  $value = trim($value);
  if (eregi ('^[[:alpha:]\.\'\-]{2,80}$', $value)) {
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}

if(performTest($_POST['result_link']) AND performTest($_POST['result_link1'])){
  $result_link = escape_data($_POST['result_link']);
} else {
  $result_link = FALSE;
  $errors[] = 'Please Enter A Link';
}
