[PHP] Ereg sass

2003-03-18 Thread Liam Gibbs
I'm not sure why, but I can't include a period in my eregi statement: [A-Za-z0-9_-.]* For this, I get Warning: ereg() [function.ereg]: REG_ERANGE in /home/website/public_html/Functions.inc on line 27 The same goes for [A-Za-z0-9_-\.]* Anyone know why?

[PHP] Which is quicker, if-else statements

2003-03-18 Thread Liam Gibbs
Is it just as quick to do: if($r == 0) { } else if($r != 0) { } than to do: if($r == 0) { } else { } The reason I like the former method is because, in a large IF-ELSE block, it's clear what belongs to what IF and what's going on. But does this make it lag? And, if so, is it really all that n

[PHP] Array_search wildcard

Is there such a thing as an array_search wildcard? Say I want to find anything beginning with RE and having zero or more characters following it, how would I do that?

[PHP] Isset

2003-03-21 Thread Liam Gibbs
Is isset() better than $ != ""? Often, I may have a 0 as values. While $ != "" doesn't recognize 0s (as in, that if would be false), isset() seems to work. Should I change all my $ != "" to isset()s, or are there other factors I should check?
