I hope you have a good REF. for regex commands
O'Reilly's series book is the best I am told.
I do not have one for the IP address
but I have
email, zipcode, and phone
Here are the strings for regex
for the following
// check the email fields for validity
"^[_\.0-9a-z-]+@([0-9a-z][0-9a-z-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,3}$"
// check zipcodes for validity - but not the last 4 business digits
"(^[0-9]{5})-([0-9]{4}$)", trim($zip_code)) &&
(!ereg("^[a-zA-Z][0-9][a-zA-Z][[:space:]][0-9][a-zA-Z][0-9]$"
// check phone for validity
"(^(.*)[0-9]{3})(.*)([0-9]{3})(.*)([0-9]{4}$)"
