Stopping blanks

Hi,

I tend to use the following code to stop users leaving form fields blank: -

if ( (!isset($name)) || (empty($name)) )

But...

I noticed that this doesn't stop people entering a " " or more than one blank if you're not testing for it.

Is there a standard way to resolve this? Ideally I'd like to avoid reinventing the wheel 🙂

TIA

Chris

if (strlen(trim($name)))

should do the trick.

sorry, typed too fast. That should've been

if (strlen(trim($name)) < 1)

My bad.

That's great - thank you.

BTW: I was just checking out your site - Just curious really! Anyway, it seemed that none of the links worked.

Just in case you need to know....

Thanks again.

Chris
