Hi,

I want to make a check for pure numeric and pure alphanumeric check for my php script.

I want to check pure numeric or alpha numeric.

e.g.

!$@%#^#^&#
123243242

not

24 hours ambulance

or

Sam & co.

Please help.

ctype_alpha() and ctype_digit() will be helpful for you - There are several ctype_*** functions available.

HI,

There are two functions which can help you to identify whether the entered value is pure numeric or alphabet.
1. Pure Numeric
isNumeric($value)
2. Pure Alphabet
isAlpha($value)

Both the functions will return bolean value.

That's it.
