So, i was using eregi in my mail script, but as of lately, i get the error that the function is deprecated.
So, what is the easiest way to replace the following bit of code:
if (!eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9._%-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$", trim($_POST['email'])))?
Any help is appreciated :)
if (!preg_match("/^[A-Z0-9.%-]+@[A-Z0-9.%-]+.[A-Z]{2,4}$/", trim($_POST['email'])))
Using preg_match.
Because ereg_* functions is deprecated in PHP >= 5.3
Also for email validation better used filter_var
if (!filter_var(trim($_POST['email']), FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL))
echo 'Email is incorrect';
