validation

[westminster86]

when leaving the form blank i get the error message from the first if statment. But even when i do add values into the two fields i still get the error message? what am i doing wrong? the two varibales have values becuase ive checked with echo statments

 

<?php


$email = $_POST['uemail'];
$password = $_POST['upassword'];


try
{

  if(!filled_out($_POST))
  {
    throw new Exception('You have not filled the form out correctly - please go back and try again.');
  }

  if(!valid_email($email))
  {
    throw new Exception('That is not a valid email address. Please go back and try again.');
  }

  if(strlen($password)<6)
  {
    throw new Exception('Your password must be at least 6 characters long. Please go back and try again');
  }
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
  echo $e->getMessage();
  exit;
}

function filled_out($form_vars)
{
  foreach ($form_vars as $key => $value)
  {
    if (!isset($key) || ($value == ''))
      return false;
  }
  return true;
}

function valid_email($address)
{
  if (ereg('^[a-zA-Z0-9 \._\-]+@([a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\-]*\.)+[a-zA-Z+$', $address))
    return true;
  else
    return false;
}

?>
