Hi,

Could someone be kind enough to have a look at this regular expression
and perhaps tell me why is returns false when a '-' character is
included in the $center string?

    if (eregi("^[a-zA-Z0-9!@#\$%^&\*\(\),/.//<>\?;':\"~`_\+\|\-\\\t\n\
]*$", $center))
  {
    return true;
  }
  else
  {
    return false;
  }

This regular expression is just for making sure that the input contains
only characters that are available on a standard (American-English)
keyboard i.e. if the string contains a '©' it will return false. Maybe
there's a better way to do this without using regular expressions?

Thanks very much in advance for any help.

- Best regards,
Lee
