How to use Regx in formit ???

I am trying to block free emails eg: google.com, live.com etc using regx. Its not working, please help...

Here's my FormIt call:

[[!FormIt?
&hooks=`spam,email,redirect`
&vTextRegexp=`No free emails please`
&emailTpl=`MyEmailChunk`
&emailTo=`[email protected]`
&redirectTo=`117`
&validate=`name:required,
email:required:regexp=^([\w-\.]+@(?!gmail.com)(?!yahoo.com)(?!live.com)([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]{2,4})?$^,
subject:required,
text:required:stripTags`

]]

I haven't used regex with FormIt, but I would think you'd need delimiters at each end of the regex (in addition to the ^ marks). I could be wrong.

email:required:regexp=^([\w-\.]+@(?!gmail.com)(?!yahoo.com)(?!live.com)([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]{2,4})?$^,

The problem has to do with {2,4} in your regex, and the way FormIt parses &validate.

The issue? The comma ( , ) is causing an unintended split, resulting in an invalid expression being sent to preg_match.



I will file this as a bug on the official FormIt repo.
