php Filter var & common regex patterns
People … quit messing about with ereg_replace / preg_replace / eregi or other things you know nothing of… use the php filter_var. DO IT. Commonly found bullshit on the interwebs : function isValidEmail($email){ return eregi(“^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)(\.[a-z]{2,3})$”,$email); } eregi is deprecated and silly, the above WILL miss some of the weirder or longer email addresses like school/company…
