Seems like you're using some sort of a template or something.
I am not familiar with this type, so I'm afraid I can't be of much
help... but if i had to guess, it seems that you have to use {} instead
of <?PHP and ?> So try this :
replace from the <?PHP line down to the input.error/input.normal line
with this
<?php
/*
* Do all the logic BEFORE the form layout
*/
$class = "input.normal";
if ($error_msg)
$class = "input.error";
$form_block=<<<END_FORM
<form method="post" action="{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}" class="info_request" >
<fieldset class="left">
<legend title="About You">About You</legend>
<p><label for="firstname"><span class="red">*</span> First Name: </label><br
/>
<input class="{$class?}" id="firstname" name="firstname" type="text" value="{$_POST['firstname']}">
Regarding the regex,
check out this page http://www.sitepoint.com/article/regular-expressions-php
the gist of it is
|
eregi('^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+\.[a-zA-Z.]{2,5}$', $email)|
Good Luck

I think so Minuk. Here is the *entire* form code below. Maybe someone can
also point out why the email regex validation code isn't working?

should parse into HTML by PHP. This block, I am assuming is placed in a
HTML tag and not in a <?PHP block, correct?

sorry, my editor has not indented again

also, I want the field to appear hilighted when there is no
information so I am doing this:
<input class="<? if($error_msg){ echo "error"; } ELSE { echo
"normal"; } id="firstname" name="firstname" type="text"
value="{$_POST['firstname']}"? />"
I think the quote mark balancing is messed up here...
<input class="
this starts a quote for the class=
There appears to be no ending quote for that...
I>t may simply have been lost in email editing, however...
adding the input.error didn't solve the problem dang it.! If there is
a ending quote missing, I don't see it right off hand.
I know have:
<input class="<? if($error_msg){ echo "input.error"; } ELSE { echo
"input.normal"; } id="firstname" name="firstname" type="text"
value="{$_POST['firstname']}"? />"
in the css:
input.error {
border: 2px inset red;
margin:0;
font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #036;
width: 15em;
padding-left: .25em;
font-weight: bold;
background: #eee;
}
