PHP - Is This A Suitable Preg_match For Checking An Email?
preg_match("/^[a-zA-Z] [a-zA-Z0-9]{8, 13} [\_]{1, 1} \@ [a-zA-Z0-9]{1, 15} \. [a-zA-Z]{2, 4}$/", $string);
Basically what I want it to check to see is that the email starts with one lowercase or uppercase letter. Then make sure the email contains only a-zA-Z0-9 characters than can span up to 13 chars long. And that a hyphen may be used if necessary, but is not required. Then of course make sure there is an "@" sign. The rest is to make sure that the domain name is only consisted of a-zA-Z0-9 characters that may be up to 15 characters long. Also, require a period right after, and then the TLD, which I would imagine the largest is only 4 characters long. Is that what the above does? If not, can someone guide me in the right direction and help correct any errors, if applicable? Similar TutorialsHi Guys, I'm using the following code to write emails to a .txt file: // Write the email to file $leadsFile = "leads/emails.txt"; $fh = fopen($leadsFile, 'a') or die ("can't open leads file!"); $writeData = "$conEM\r\n"; fwrite($fh, $writeData); fclose($fh); which works great, but i can't figure out how to NOT write an email to the .txt file if it's already on it, i'm not using a database for a change i'm stumped lol thanks for any help guys Graham Hello - I've come to an issue with something I'm working on and have searched around with no luck. When editing user accounts I want it to not be able to change the e-mail address into existing ones on other rows, but when submitting the form it takes into account that this particular rows email address is the same as the one which was sent via $_POST and throws up the error. The desired behaviour I want is for it to ignore the ID of the row which was posted, but take into account every other row. Here's the code as it stands at the moment: $email = $_POST['email']; $checkemail = mysql_query("SELECT email FROM users WHERE email='$email'"); } if (mysql_num_rows($checkemail) > 0) { return $this->error("The e-mail address you provided is already associated with an account."); } Hi I am implementing a read-only access to some specific attributes of a class via the magic __get method. I intend to raise an exception when trying to write to it using __set, but I'm not sure which exception is suitable to use. Is there any predefined exception to indicate such an error or should I just go ahead and define my own? i wanting users to be able to update there email address and check to see if the new email already exists. if the email is the same as current email ignore the check. i have no errors showing up but if I enter a email already in the db it still accepts the new email instead of bringing the back the error message. Code: [Select] // email enterd from form // $email=$_POST['email']; $queryuser=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE inv='$ivn' ") or die (mysql_error()); while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $queryuser )) { $check=$info['email']; // gets current email // } if($check!=$email){ // if check not equal to $email check the new email address already exists// $queryuser=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE email='$email' "); //$result=mysql_query($sql); $checkuser=mysql_num_rows($queryuser); if($checkuser != 0) { $error= "0"; header('LOCATION:../pages/myprofile.php?id='.$error.''); } } cheers I know $regex_pattern is wrong but I need a solution to find a content between <body> and </body>. Code: [Select] <?php $content = "<html><head><title>Your IP</title></head><body>Your IP Address: 63.1.142.154</body></html>"; $regex_pattern = "/<body>(.*)<\/body>/"; $preg_match($regex_pattern,htmlspecialchars($content),$matches); print_r( $matches ); ?> I have a DOMDocument which I inspect an HTML page for links (href) That part works however I am not sure how to use preg_match if I only want to display a link in this layout: <tr> <td headers="c1"><a title="Link to entity information." tabindex="1" href="CORPSEARCH.ENTITY_INFORMATION?p_nameid=3236937&p_corpid=3227476&p_entity_name=%41%72%77%65%6E%20%45%71%75%69%74%69%65%73&p_name_type=%41&p_search_type=%42%45%47%49%4E%53&p_srch_results_page=0">ABC LLC</a></td> </tr> I hope someone is really good at preg_match to help me. Thanks. I need to select an array item based on my preg result. for example: Code: [Select] $content = 'test-1'; $match = preg_replace('|test-([0-9])|', $array['\\1'], $content); is this possible?

Hi im trying to do a registration form and i am new to using preg_match. I keep getting the error "( ! ) Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: No ending delimiter '^' found in C:\wamp\www\registration1.php on line 67" and for every other line I use preg_match. this is an example of how i have used it Code: [Select] if ( preg_match('^[[:alnum:]\.\'\-]{4,50}$', stripslashes(trim($_POST['UserName']))) ) { $UserName = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['UserName']); $query = "SELECT UserName FROM Users WHERE UserName = '$UserName'"; $result = @mysql_query($query); $num = @mysql_num_rows($result); im such a noob at this can someone please help me I would also like to add that I have read the http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match.php page but i dont really understand it. I'm pretty new to this, How exactly could i get the text between the www. and .com? so if i have a url: http://www.facebook.com I want to just return "facebook" Hi,
I have a "scraped" string and want to use the preg_match() to give me just a pice of it.
The string is from a webpage, but is dynamic....
here´s the typical string format:
<a class="stripped-link lightblue-link profile-page-link" href="/x/xxx+xxx+xxx/xxxx">HER IS THE WANTED TEXT</a>
The orange is static. The green (the xxxx is the dynamic part of the string)
Can I use the preg_match() for this?
thanks (and yes I´m a newbe.... )
Im trying to match this string, but i dont wat to match normal words like "hello world 646" Code: [Select] $string = "2ab055843241f20044af82ae0d5ace04"; //always over 15 chars - without spaces if ( preg_match('~^[0-9\s]+$~D', $string)) { echo 'yes'; } If i can do it with preg_match that would be great Hi,
