Marian - as someone else already mentioned, it may not be a good idea to
automagically change a value provided by the user, unless there's no
reason for the user to ever know the modified value....

That said, if you really want to use ereg_replace, try this:

ereg_replace("[^[:alnum:]+$]", "", $_POST['dirnamewanted']);

(note: placed ^ and +$ inside bounding brakcets, added replace string,
separated parms with commas)
