Invalidate 2 spaces...

[felipe_lopes]

Hi!
I already tried all the ways I could thing about how to make 2 spaces in a name field invalid...Could anyone help me please?
My code:

if (!ereg("^{([a-z,A-Z]+)(} ([a-z,A-Z]+)[.]?)( ([a-z,A-Z]+)[.]?)?( ([a-z, A-Z]+))?( ([a-z, A-Z]+))?$", $name)) {
$msg .= "<b>*</b>False.<BR>\n";
}

Thank you

Felipe Lopes

have you tried using trim() ?..not sure if it would work on a whitespace only string tho..if it does then you can check with empty()

$str = ereg_replace (' +', ' ', $str);

This will replace, modify it if you can...
