[Resolved] regular expression matching spaces

[Lemonboi]

I've done a search but found nothing that really helps.

I've got a regular expression which I want to use to check that an address is valid
ie 23/247 Roxborough drive

I have the following expression but it returns invalid for me

eregi('^{[\sa-zA-Z0-9_/-.]+$',} $value)

[Weedpacket]

\s won't work in eregi(). You want either [:space:] or preg_match().

[Lemonboi]

ok, do it works now

eregi(('^{[[:space:]a-zA-Z0-9_/-.]+$',} $value)
