A user entered
[EMAIL PROTECTED] today for an email address and my trap did not catch it.
I use this to validate the email address.
<@ASSIGN NAME="request$checkEmail" VALUE='<@REGEX
EXPR="^[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+(\.[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+)[EMAIL PROTECTED](\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)+$"
STR="<@ARG email>" TYPE="E">'>
<@IF EXPR="<@NUMROWS ARRAY=@@request$checkemail>>0">
<@ASSIGN NAME="request$validEmail" VALUE="OK">
<@ELSE>
<@ASSIGN NAME="request$validEmail" VALUE="C">
</@IF>
I tried adding this to the If Missing action
<@LEFT STR="Email" NUMCHARS="4"> and equal to www.
It returns www.
But does not seem to halt the action.
I also tried changing the Validation to:
<@ASSIGN NAME="request$checkEmail" VALUE='<@REGEX
EXPR="^[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+(\.[_a-zA-Z0-9-]+)[EMAIL PROTECTED](\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)+$"
STR="<@ARG email>" TYPE="E">'>
<@IF EXPR="<@NUMROWS ARRAY=@@request$checkemail>>0">
<@ASSIGN NAME="request$validEmail" VALUE="OK">
<@ELSEIF EXPR="<@LEFT STR='<@ARG email>' CHARS='4'>=www.">
<@ASSIGN NAME="request$validEmail" VALUE="C">
<@ELSE>
<@ASSIGN NAME="request$validEmail" VALUE="C">
</@IF>
Can I do it with the validation REGEX that would be easier but why does it
fail it looks like the www. Comes back from the <@LEFT> fine but it does not
evaluate to match.
