Dear All,

i am trying to validate a UK post code ie. kt1 2ls
and used the following to do so

eregi("^([[:alnum:]]{3,4})+(| )+([[:alnum:]]{3,4})$"

where(| ) corresponds to the space between 2 alphanumeric items, but this error message appears

Warning: eregi() [function.eregi]: REG_EMPTY

is there anyway to check for a space in the text entered? (only one space though)

Thanking you in advance,
Chirag
