Yeah I read that report... and as it says you're using Euler's notation.
Now tried
function isnumeric($n) {
if (ereg("^[0-9]{1,50}.?[0-9]{0,50}$", $n)) {
if (preg_match('/^[0-9]+\.?[0-9]+$/'), $n) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
and that doent seem to work either..
any ideas.. need to validate anything without 0-9 and a dot within
