The following snippet always generates

   Parse error: parse error in 
   /home/virtual/muwupa/update.php3 on line 83

78 $pwdfile = @file($htpasswd);

81 for ($i = 0; $i < count($pwdfile); $i++) {
82    echo "delete: ", $delete, "; pwdfile: ", $pwdfile[$i];
83    if (!(ereg($delete, $pwdfile[$i], $t)) {
84       $temp = $pwdfile[$i];
85       fputs($fp, $temp);
86    }
87 }

The numbers in front of each line of code are the corresponding line numbers.  Seems like a bug in ereg.  The syntax according to PHP/FI 2 and PHP3 says that it should be fine.

Also the following code seemed to have a bug in $deluser.  When echoing out deluser, as below, it said that the value of deluser was "Array" rather than the real value of "test2"

84    echo "deluser: ", $deluser, "; delete: ", $delete, "; pwdfile: ", $pwdfile[$i];
85    if ($deluser[0] != $delete) {
86       $temp = $pwdfile[$i];
87       fputs($fp, $temp);
88    }
89 }

91 fclose($fp);

I'd be happy to email the three files that comprise the entire PHP application if anyone is interested.
