How can do it with re开发者_运维技巧gex? I used to work with them with preg_replace(), but i think this is not the case. Also, i know that the "ereg" function is dead. Any solutions?


this regex is pretty common these days.

if(preg_match('/^[a-z0-9\-\_]+$/i',$username))
{
   // Ok
}


Use preg_match:

preg_match('/^[\w-]+$/D', $str)

Here \w describes letters, digits and the _, so [\w-]+ matches one or more letters, digits, _, and -. ^ and $ are so called anchors that denote the begin and end of the string respectively. The D modifier avoids that $ really matches the end of the string and is not followed by a line break.

Note that the letter and digits that are matched by \w depend on the current locale and might match other letter or digits than just [a-zA-Z0-9]. So if you just want these, use them explicitly. And if you want to allow more than these, you could also try character classes that are describes by Unicode character properties like \p{L} for all Unicode letters.


Try preg_match(). http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match.php
