Re: Email Validator
Thanks ;-) You're welcome. Btw, I glanced at your other post, but I am not familiar with PHP design patterns/best practices: I only know a bit of regex. Good luck with your blog! Well, I'll keep you in mind if the day comes where I need a super-regex ;-). I wish you knew more about the OOP aspects ...

Re: Email Validator
Nod, I could always add more domains. It's a toss up between adding more domains via the OR method or just making it certain length accepted. Or, you could just allow it to accept anything after the domain. portion. I understand your issue with validating email addresses. While the compare would mak...

I was reading a book earlier and they had a regex that was.. well, flawed. How does this look to you guys? ^[a-zA-Z]+[a-zA-Z0-9_\-.]*@[a-zA-Z0-9]+[a-zA-Z0-9\-.]*\.com|net|info|tv|org|biz|au|eu$ I know there is a crazy regex out there that is the 'standard', but I think for most uses this one will wo...

Re: Design a sql query class
I am new to PHP and OOP as well. I'm currently working on a Blogging platform ( yes yes, reinventing the wheel- but I'm just trying to learn ). The following is a Pseudo code excerpt from my DB class: //------------------------------------------------------------------------ // CLASS DB // p...

Re: user classes and implementation
Ok, so would you create a new DB object within the related User class function, say create_user(), to open up the connection and close it, or would you create the object outside of the function, open the connection, call the User object function, passing it the reference to the database connection, ...

user classes and implementation
Hi Everyone. I'm new to the forums and rather new to PHP. I recently bought some books on the subject and have began to plan out writing a blogging platform for personal use. Yes, I know that they are a dime a dozen.. but I'm doing it more for educational purposes. At least that's my excuse ;-). Abo...

Re: finding numbers and adding them
Thank you, that is a great help. My only question is regarding: /\d+(\.\d+)?/ I understand what \d+ does, but can you explain the rest long hand? If I can get that from you I should be good to go on my own, I just need a 'real world' explanation of how all of the metacharacters interact. Thanks a bu...

Re: finding numbers and adding them
The first link you posted I've been too. I'll go back through and look again. The code I posted didn't return ANY result. None printed anyways, which wasn't expected.

Re: finding numbers and adding them
<?php $message = $HTTP_POST_VARS['message']; preg_match("/[a-z\s]+(\d+)[a-z\s]+/i", $message, $match); echo "The number in the string is " . $match[1]; ?> I tried that most recently from some guides I found online. Nothing is too descriptive though, at least with syntax. F...

finding numbers and adding them
Alright.. I am reading the posts in this forum regarding reg expressions. I'm not getting anything to really work on my server. I'm a newb to PHP and I'm trying to do the following: Search a 'blob' of text for numbers, and add them. ie: Input from text field: "This is my blob of text. Today I w...

Re: Mail Script
JAB, Thank you very much for your reply. I will check out PHP.net for some more information. The php script that I inserted into my previous post is fully functional, my only question was regarding the space in the "from" name in the actual email. For some reason it isn't separating the tw...

Mail Script
Hi everyone, I am new to PHP. I've never done anything and this will have been my first form script that I've 'modded'. I took bits and pieces, here and there, to make it work to my liking. My one question is that the From name is put together in my inbox. So if a user enters "User Name" a...
