    Default [Help] PHP

    Hey, I'm making a register form, and I don't want the user's first name or last name to be able to contain numbers. How can I make it check if they've entered numbers in a field using PHP? Any help +rep if I can. I've used Google, no joy, so please don't just say use Google.

    Thanks,
    Vince.

    Just using a preg_match on the string should do the trick.

    PHP Code:
    <?php
    if(preg_match('/[0-9]/'$string)) {

        echo 
    'error message here';
        
    }
    ?>

    That works perfectly, thanks a lot! +Rep.
