Thank you for your detailed reply. Most helpful.
Another question - You stated that:
'When it comes to receiving data from the user, you should never trust it
without some form of validation to make sure that the values are in the
range you are expecting. Failure to do so can lead to nasty surprises.'
Using the textbook 'PHP Web Development with Dreamweaver MX 2004' as a
guide, I used these statements to validate email addresses:
$pattern = '/^\w[-.\w]*@([-a-z0-9]+\.)+[a-z]{2,4}$/i';
if (!preg_match($pattern,$yourEmail))................
and strip-tags to validate other input.
Is this sufficient?
