Web-base email help...

[raymondhui]

Dear All,

I am just a beginner to PHP programming, i am now writing a web-base email client to read and send email in a web-interface.

I have use the eregi_replace() function. But there is sometime errors like this:

Warning: Invalid range end in functions.php on line 394

And what exactly in line 394 is like that:

$body = eregi_replace("([#[:alnum:]+-.])@([#[:alnum:]+-]).([[:alnum:]+-_.]+[#[:alnum:]+]*)","<a href=\"$PHP_SELF?action=write&amp;mail_to=\1@\2.\3&amp;lang=$lang\">\1@\2.\3</a>", $body);

so why there is such error happens sometimes but sometimes not.

What's wrong in this script? How can i fix it?

Urgent help please and thanks!!

I'm just guessing, but I think it might be the hyphen in your character classes. Inside a character class '-' indicates a range of characters, so that you can say "[a-z]" instead of "[abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz]".

Try "([-#[:alnum:]+.])@([-#[:alnum:]+]).([-[:alnum:]+_.]+[#[:alnum:]+]*)" instead and see if that works.
