Although I am all pro-serverside coding, I'd rather implement these
simple input type checks on the client side, using Javascript. Much more
user-friendly than filling out forms and after each submit be told it's
wrong.
Besides, ereg is slow, compared to strlen, as Kimmo already explained
how to use.
