PHP ereg();

[Halting]

Hey,

I want to use the ereg function to find MSIE followed by any number between 0 and 7.0. For instance MSIE 5.01. What would be the valid regular expression for this?

Thanks in advance,
Olii

<?php
$input = "MSIE 5.01";
$eimput = explode(" ", $input)
$num = $eimput[1];

ereg ("([0-7]{1}).([0-99]{2,1})", $num, $finout);

echo "Returned: ";
echo $finout[1];
echo ".";
echo $finout[2];

?>

Not tested, may not work.

Nope

Try:

<?php 
$input = "MSIE 5.01"; 
$eimput = explode(" ", $input) 
$num = $eimput[1]; 

if(ereg ("([0-7]{1}).([0-99]{2,1})", $num, $finout)){ 

echo "Returned: "; 
echo $finout[1]; 
echo "."; 
echo $finout[2]; 
}
?>
