Guys, Thanks for the replies and the link to the recent thread, even though that didn't discuss any solutions to the problem I am asking about (other than to point it out which helps because it points out a few of the name problems)! Would anyone care to work on this project together?

Re: [PHP] PHP Phone Number Validation

OK, I know this has probably gone aruond the list a few times, but how do I
validate a phone number that is in the format ddd-ddd- ?? I can't figure
out how.
I try to not restrict the way your users enter phone numbers or other types
of structured data. I wouldn't bother validating against ddd-ddd- unless
you also plan on validating (ddd) ddd-, ddd.ddd., +1 ddd ddd ddd or
any number of variations. Your best bet is to make sure that the number
contains 10 (or 11) digits:
$phone = preg_replace('/[^0-9]/', '', $phone); # remove non-numbers
if (preg_match('/^1?[0-9]{10}$/', $phone)) {
echo 'Valid';
}
To answer your original question:
if (preg_match('/^[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{4}$/', $phone)) {
echo 'Valid';
}

Re: [PHP] Is flock() necessary on a simple file append?

Re: [PHP] --disable-url-fopen-wrapper gone?
On 10/05/2004 12:03 PM, Marten Lehmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, one account of a user on our webserver was compromised using a feature of fopen to load external sources. As of the documentation, there shall be a configure option called --disable-url-fopen-wrapper. Unfortunately, this option doesn't seem to exist in 4.3.9. How can I set a default for allow_url_fopen during the compilation? Or is the only way to set allow_url_fopen=0 in the master php.ini? As of PHP 4.3.5, I believe the only way to change allow_url_fopen is via php.ini or httpd.conf. AFAICT, --disable-url-fopen-wrapper disappeared in PHP 4.0.4.

Re: [PHP] PHP logic - Whats going on here?
On 08/11/2004 9:28 AM, Kim Steinhaug [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Thanks for your reply, it all seems logical when you think of it,
still I also think it sounds logical without the extra ELSE statement
since the function has to executed for the first IF to do the comparison,
meaning that the email should be sendt in the first place. (If it didnt
how could it state FALSE or TRUE, unless PHP only simulates the
function if it falls outside the initial IF statement)
However, no reason to argue the obvious, :D
On the other hand, this would also mean that the exmaples from
phpmailers homepage are wrong :
[ SNIP FROM http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/extending.html ]
$mail-Body= $body;
$mail-AltBody = $text_body;
$mail-AddAddress($row[email], $row[full_name]);
$mail-AddStringAttachment($row[photo], YourPhoto.jpg);
if(!$mail-Send())
echo There has been a mail error sending to . $row[email] .
br;
[ /SNIP]
This is probably why I in the first place removed the extra ELSE statement,
since I didnt see any reason for it. But in future Ill always include it it
seems, :D
I've been using PHPMailer like this for years:
if (!$mail-Send()) { }
You shouldn't need an extra else { }, Jay's reasoning nonetheless. That
being said, I don't know why it isn't working for you.

I know that dial-up users get different IPs every time they connect, but for somehting like this to happen, they'd have to be using some kind of round-robin DNS for a proxy server or some kind of wacky load balancing.
