not a php expert but have filed this bug report re validating
is_numeric('3e0');
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=32943

Now tried

function isnumeric($n) {
if (ereg("^[0-9]{1,50}.?[0-9]{0,50}$", $n)) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}

and that doent seem to work either..

any ideas.. need to validate anything without 0-9 and a dot within

tia
