This is no good because it doesn't check for single or double quotes. Inputting anything with quotes gives ugly ugly errors. Plus, Boolean interpreters should group quoted words as a single term. It doesn't check for malicious code input at all. I tried editing it to make it better, but after lots and lots of work, I didn't get very far. If you can fix it up, let me know =)

With error reporting cranked right up it throws a few warnings, but no errors. It certainly performs as described. The only thing it doesn't seem to do is check for "+". But adding that is a 30 second task. If this isn't good enough for you, just what are you looking for? ...R. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
