Hi guys,
I am currently working on a website and I want to know whether is it possible to register members based on their email providers for eg. I want to deny members registering using their email id's provided by Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, MSN etc ... and members with email ids ending with a certain address such as .gov or .net can only register on the website.

I request for some help on this topic.

if you are using php and the email variable is $email, when they have submitted on the page that registers them, put:

<?php
if ((((strpos($email, "@") !== false) && ((strpos($email, ".net") !== false) ||(strpos($email, ".com") !== false))) && ((strpos($email, "@gmail.com") === false) ||(strpos($email, "@yahoo.com") === false) ||(strpos($email, "@hotmail.co.uk") === false) ||(strpos($email, "@hotmail.com") === false) ||(strpos($email, "@msn.com") === false) ||(strpos($email, "@msn.co.uk") === false))){

continue registration (code here).

}else{
echo"Registration Denied.";
}
?>

If it is that there are just one or two email you do want to allow it would be easier to do that than blocking all these ones.

hey thanx a lot for the help mate, but I have described the situation in more detail, if you could please check your email.

I would be really thankful mate.

cheers
