You are in serious need of some regex here...google email regex and you will
have enough results to get you what you want.
Postal Code (assume 2 letters 4 dgits in that order
if (ereg("^[A-Z]{2}{0-9]{4}$",$_POST['postal'])){
...
As for pasting it back to the form, I would suggest you have the form as a
function and the processing code as a function, then you can pass the post
arrays back and forth and pass the error handling along with it

Hi, I have a form, form results are PUSHED to another page and processed.
Files below. (in plain-tet)
Now this is what I want to do:
1) Make all fields required input, but if easy to configure I want to
have rules for each textarea. For instance an email address must contain a
'@' symbol. Must be at leat 5 character longs and must be in a form of an
email address. So if I type you@me it would produce an error, highlighting
the error area or display a message at the top of the page. Postcode
should contain 4 numbers and numbers only, etc. The only field that can be
left blank will be the message area. How do I achieve this? (message
regarding this below)
2) I want to add to the form a UNIQUE ID generater. I will add a new
hidden form field for this. I need a script called by PHP to generate it.
Would include both letters and numbers and be atleast 8 CHARS long.
As for 1) I have tried some javascript but it failed, since I PUSH all
field responses to another page. When i add it the submit button fails and
does not push the results through. But it produces the error fine, but
form is not PUSHED on. So it seems it's lost because of the javascript.
So i took it out completely. I think there is a way in PHP to call errors
for forms? But anways, here are the files below. Please help, I am on a
tight schedule here if anyone can assist me.
file one looks like this: (form.php)
<? include("header.php");?>

FYI I have changed some email settings and configuration files for
security reasons. But as you can see results are pushed to the second file
than emailed off, no need for a database or anything. So you should be
able to test very easily.
If anyone can help with suggestions or even do the code it would be
mostly appreciated, can pay since it's urgent.
Thanks for your time!
