Try this:
Code: Select all
<?php
var $emailpattern = "^[a-z0-9]([-_.]?[0-9a-z])*@[0-9a-z]([-.]?[0-9a-z])*.[a-z]{2,3}\$"; //...$" => ...\$"
?>

Sure! I was editing this post
\ is the escape operator. See the
Strings section of the PHP Manual and also
string parsing for accurate further information and examples.
