not a php expert but have filed this bug report re validating
is_numeric('3e0');
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=32943
Now tried
function isnumeric($n) {
if (ereg("^[0-9]{1,50}.?[0-9]{0,50}$", $n)) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
and that doent seem to work either.

How do I use this to error check form data? I'm having a hard time
figuring out what the correct syntax is for that application. Thanks.

I think what I should have asked is how to tell if something is not
numberic.

Does is_numeric include commas decimals and dollar signs?
How do I use this to error check form data? I'm having a hard time
figuring out what the correct syntax is for that application. Thanks.

Hi,
I'm trying to read a file that contains a group of numbers, each of them in one line
of the file. I need to verify that the file is valid, so i read line by line and test
if the line is numeric:
...
$line = fgets ($FileDesc);
$line = trim ($line);
if (!is_numeric ($line))
return 0;

Hi Philip,
By definition, any string that does not contain
alpha-characters is numeric. I mean, '123' is an
integer, if only because it isn't 'onetwothree', you
know?
Because if I do this:
$num1 = '123';
$num2 = '456';
$total = $num1 + $num2;
print($total);
the total is going to be 579. You
Hi Daniel,
No, I mean if it's numeric, not neccesarily an integer. As the following
is numeric and not an integer but rather, a string :
$num = '123';
Anyone have an authoritative answer on this? Like, something that would
go in the manual as the official php3 is_numeric check?
Regards,
do you mean, as in,
if !is_integer($var) {
print("$var is not an integer");
}

hi friends,
Can someone post here "the" most efficient method to validate a variable
as numeric? I see a ton of hacks/ways in the manual user comments under
is_int, is_integer and is_numeric and would like to see just one or two
good solid ones. And please, no regular expressions :)
