ereg or eregi variable contains variabl

[knightorc]

I am stumped.

I am trying to see if my users password contains their login name prior to accepting.

$login_name="bob";

$passwd="bobbob";

I want a check to fail for this!

I have tried:
if eregi($login_name,$passwd) {
return false;
} else {
return true;
}

Doesn't work

If I try
if eregi("bob",$passwd) {
return false;
} else {
return true;
}

I get the result I am looking for.

Anyone have any ideas?

try doing:
if eregi("$login_name",$passwd) ...

just a thought

I believe that I have tried that.

I will try again.

I looks like it should work.

We will see I guess.

I will post a YES or NO.
