Simple functions to check & fix if necessary invalid formating of a MAC address... I seem to be having problems with the global variable $mac not being returned from the fix_mac() function. Any help is appreciated.

global $mac;

if( eregi( "^[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\-[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\-[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\-[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\-[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\-[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}$", $mac ) ) {

@list( $mac1, $mac2, $mac3, $mac4, $mac5, $mac6 ) = @str_split( $mac, 2 );
/* put it back together with the required colons */
$mac = $mac1 . ":" . $mac2 . ":" . $mac3 . ":" . $mac4 . ":" . $mac5 . ":" . $mac6;
return $mac;
}
}
// do our checks to make sure we are using these damn things right $mac1 = "00aa11bb22cc"; $mac2 = "00-aa-11-bb-22-cc"; $mac3 = "00:aa:11:bb:22:cc";
// make sure it is global global $mac;
// if mac submitted is invalid check & fix if necessary if( chk_mac( $mac1 ) != 0 ) { $mac = fix_mac( $mac1 ); echo $mac1 . " converted to " . $mac . "<br>"; } if( chk_mac( $mac2 ) != 0 ) { $mac = fix_mac( $mac2 ); echo $mac2 . " converted to " . $mac . "<br>"; } if( chk_mac( $mac3 ) != 0 ) { $mac = fix_mac( $mac3 ); echo $mac3 . " converted to " . $mac . "<br>"; }
?>
Still does not resolve the problem. declaring $mac as global in the chk_mac() function.
