$data is the variable to be checked.
isfloat($data)
=> checks wether the given variable is a float.
number_format($data, 2, '.', '')==$data
=> checks wether the float is formatted with the right decimal-seperator,
and has 2 decimals
$data >=$min;
=> checks wether the float is greater than or equal to the minimum
$data <=$max
=> checks wether the float is smaller than or equal to the maximum
These four combined give tha validation you asked for.
In this code:
$min = 0.00;
$max = 9999999.00
$pass = (isfloat($data) && number_format($data, 2, '.', '')==$data &&
$data >= $min && $data<=$max);
$pass is set to a boolean: true if it meets your conditions, false
otherwise.
You could also do it like this:
$min = 0.00;
$max = 9999999.00
if(isfloat($data) && number_format($data, 2, '.', '')==$data &&
$data >= $min && $data<=$max){
// run your code
} else {
//display error, exit function, whatever you desire.
}
I am NOT explaining the regex to you, that's even more work then writing the
damn thing :-)
It was not enterily right do, it should be:
'/^(0\.[0-9]{2}|[1-9][0-9]{0,5}\.[0-9]{2}|[1-9][0-9]{6}[0-8]\.[0-9]{2}|99999
9
9\.00)$/'
The regex can be applied like;
if(preg_match('the_regex_i_gave_you', $data){
//run your code
} else {
//display error, exit function, whatever you desire.
}
