Anyone tell me why this wont workl please?

if (!eregi("^[:alnum:]+@[:alnum:]$", $email[$counting])) { error("The email address you submitted, $email[$counting], does not appear to be valied. Please check." exit; }

I'm checking for the email validity. I keep getting a false value sent, even when the address is formatted correctly. I'm just guessing my way through reg exps at the moment, so if anyone knows a good tutorisal, that wouldnt be missed either


Thanks

Andy

This is the one I always use:

if(!eregi("[0-9a-z]([-_.+]?[0-9a-z])*@[0-9a-z]([-.]?[0-9a-z])*\\.[a-z]{2,}$", $email)){

I know this works. mcvdmvs
