I have a contact form script up and running. Thanks to karlcore's script it's very easy to do such a thing/But i have a small problem..
When i complete an email at the format name@in.gr or name@mail.gr or name@gmail.com it says tha the mail adress is wrong i think it's something in the script..so if anyone is so kind to help me with this problem..Cause the is plenty of ppl having mail adresses like name@mail.something .. or name@aa.aa
I am writing down the check mail part od the script..

PHP Code:

// ERROR & SECURITY CHECKS

    if ( ( !$email ) ||

         ( strlen($_POST['email']) > 200 ) ||

         ( !preg_match("#^[A-Za-z0-9](([_\.\-]?[a-zA-Z0-9]+)*)@([A-Za-z0-9]+)(([\.\-]?[a-zA-Z0-9]+)*)\.([A-Za-z]{2,})$#", $email) )

       ) 

    { 

        print "Blad: Nie poprawny adres mailowy"; 

        exit; 

    } 

    if ( ( !$name ) ||

         ( strlen($name) > 100 ) ||

         ( preg_match("/[:=@\<\>]/", $name) ) 

       )

    { 

        print "Blad: Nie poprawne Imie"; 

        exit; 

    } 

    if ( preg_match("#cc:#i", $message, $matches) )

    { 

        print "Blad: Found Invalid Header Field"; 

        exit; 

    } 

    if ( !$message )

    {

        print "Blad: Prosze wypelnic komentarz"; 

        exit; 

    } 

Don't know if it is corect to put this script here..if it is a problem so please delete the Post.

i think the problem is in the preg_match. but i'm not sure, i don't understand the errors, when you have one, you print on the screen

i don't think the # is a valid regex, you might wonna check on php.net for an easier, and more clearer preg_match for emails. here's an example:

PHP Code:

preg_match( '/^[A-Z0-9._-]+@[A-Z0-9][A-Z0-9.-]{0,61}[A-Z0-9]\.[A-Z.]{2,6}$/i' , $email)

PS: try posting your code wrapped in [PHP] tags

The error comes out when i user a mail with 2 characters after @ Example the form works ok if i use name@gmail.com but i gives me an error that the email is wrong when i use name@in.gr.. i can't get it..it's somewhere in preg_match which thinks that emails with 2 chars are wrong and not only..now i am trying and it says that anme@gmail.com is wrong can i make it more universal ?? so it'll allow ALL adresses ?? even 1@1.1 ?? no problem if the mail is wrong..i 'd rather have some stupid mails than none of them
Thanks UnrealEd for the quick reply

I tried yours

PHP Code:

preg_match( '/^[A-Z0-9._-]+@[A-Z0-9][A-Z0-9.-]{0,61}[A-Z0-9]\.[A-Z.]{2,6}$/i' , $email) 

But still the same..stupid errors :/

[<?Wille?>]

PHP Code:

preg_match('#^[a-z0-9]([_\.\-]?[a-z0-9]+)*@[a-z0-9]([\.\-]?[a-zA-Z0-9]+)*\.[a-z]{2,}$#i',  $string); 

matches #(valid char and -optional- atleast one valid char after each _.-)@(valid char and -optional- atleast on valid char after each .- ).(atleast two a-z)#case insensitive
