How does that match "Firstname Lastname" better than a regex? That will return true as long as there is at least one space, no matter what the rest of the submission is. I could submit "$^&#^&$&#& )(*!@#", or I could submit just a single space, and that would return true. strpos() has it's uses, but this isn't one of them.
