Hi,
I installed Modx 1.2.0 on an Apache with PHP version > 5.3.0
WebLoginPE (version 1.3.1) returns an Error on "eregi()" function when checks email format during registration.

ATTENTION! "eregi(...)" function is deprecated since PHP 5.3.0!

So, I solved this little bug doing the substitution as following:
replaced "eregi()" with "preg_match()" and corrected the Regular Expression with more details.

FILE NAME: "webloginpe.class.php"
LINE CODE: 2920

CURRENT CODE:

if (!eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,7}$", $Email))

I replaced this line code with
REPLACE WITH:

if (!preg_match("/^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,7}$/", $Email))

And now is all OK.

I hope this will be useful for you!
Thanks a lot wink

Bye

Thanks acastronuovo

I used this code works a treat.

I was a bit stuck see:- http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,44582.0.html

I wondered why you filed in parent board when ther is a WebloginPE Board.
Just a thought not a crit.
I now see many others also post WebloginPE there.

Hi, Acastronuovo.
I greatly liked your posting that I found while googling for a solution to my login page of pMachine (filename security.fsn.php), which was blocked after my ISP (one.com) upgraded from PhP 5.2 to PhP 5.3.

However, I couldn’t make your trick work until I removed the exclamatory sign, i.e., instead of earlier:

if ( !eregi("^[A-Za-z0-9\_\/\-]+$", $str))
		{
			exit('Disallowed Characters in your global keys');
		}

I wrote

if (preg_match("/^[a-zA-Z0-9\_\/\-]+$", $str)) 
		{
			exit('Disallowed Characters in your global keys');
		}

This worked.
