only letters and space ?
if (eregi("^[A-Z ]+$", $firstname))
this will return true only if a case-insensitive string will contain only
letters and spaces... (and the string must not be NULL)
if (eregi("^([A-Z]+( )*[A-Z]+)$", trim($firstname)))\
this will return "Maxim Maletsky", " Maxim Maletsky " but not "Maxim
Maletsky, jr" or even "MaximMaletsky "
Cheers,
Maxim Maletsky
