Verify Code

[Shawazi]

Okay this code is funky and I have no idea why. It is supposed to check the format of things in a field and to make sure the password verify field matches the password field. It is supposed to do the same for the email. Unless both the e-mail and password verifies are messed up, it will think things are okay. So if both passwords match and e-mails dont it will think e-mails match. But if neither passwords or e-mails match it will know.

elseif ($key == "username")
	{
	 if (!ereg("^[A-Za-z0-9]{1,30}$",$HTTP_POST_VARS[$key]) )
			{
				$bad_format[$key] = "bad";
				$badusername = "must be 1-30 characters long made of letters and numbers";
			}
	}
		elseif ($key == "password")
	{
	 if (!ereg("^[A-Za-z0-9]{5,10}$",$HTTP_POST_VARS[$key]))
			{
				$bad_format[$key] = "bad";
				$badpassword = "must be 5-10 characters long made of letters or numbers";
			}
	}
		elseif ($key == "repassword")
	{
	 if ("$repassword" != "$password")
			{
				$bad_format[$key] = "bad";
				$badrepassword = "Passwords must match";
			}
	}
		elseif ($key == "email")
	{
	 if (!ereg("^[A-Za-z0-9 -]+@.+\\.(org|(com|net))+$",$HTTP_POST_VARS[$key]) )
			{
				$bad_format[$key] = "bad";
				$bademail = "must be valid [email][e-mail][/email] .net or .org no more than 50 characters long";
			}
	}
		elseif ($key == "veemail")
	{
	 if ("$veemail" != "$email")
			{
				$bad_format[$key] = "bad";
				$badveemail = "must match E-mail";
			}
	}

The username field works fine no matter what. Any help is much appreciated.

try this

<?php
switch ($key) {
    case "username":
        if(!isAlphNum($_POST[$key,1,30]) {
            $bad_format[$key] = "bad";
            $badusername = "must be alphanumeric and 1-30 characters in length.";
        } //end if
        break;
    case "password":
        if(!isAlphaNum($_POST[$key],5,10) {
            $bad_format[$key] = "bad";
            $badpassword = "must be 5 - 10 alphanumeric characters.";
        } //end if
    case "repassword":
        if($_POST['repassword'] != $_POST['password']) {
            $bad_format[$key] = "bad";
            $badrepassword = "Passwords must match";
        } //end if

            $retVal = FALSE;
        } //end if

    if(count($aryEmail2) < 2) {return 0;}
    return 1;
} //end isEmail

Thanks for helpin bit I figured out what was wrong before I got your post. Maybe this code will help elsewhere down the line. I was looking at the wrong part in my code cause I thought what I showed you was where the problem was. A few hundred lines is hard to look at heh.
