How are you using this?

This looks very interesting. I cannot think of a usage for myself but I was wondering how you are using it?

I use this in my contact form.

User needs only to enter his email, subject and body of message.

It helps to make some forms smaller, easier for the user.

Here is another usage example -- a webmail client.

I am using RoundCube webmail client. I have modified this to better extract names from email addresses and display this on screen.

Okay. Never used Round Cube (using T-bird), but checked it out. Guess I am going to have to try it now. :-)

I think I have a space for this... you never know for sure until the client says, "Okay-cool" or something like that.

Are you at all interested in a JS / PHP DB form wrapper thing?

I deleted my tech web site to start over because the WP thingy was too old to update - I know, been around a while. LOL.

pc at patcurtis dot com not the tech site just a way to contact me...just go there if you want anything.

Thank you again for the code.

Pat :-)

Hi

Wondering if you could help me enhance this script? I want to try and and match against 2 dictionary files, one male (first name) and one female (first name), so not only extract their name try and guess the gender from the extracted firstname with a probability score (example, if the name was Mary, or Mary Smith, we could be 100% sure this was a female)

At the moment your code only seems to work on a double name found in an email address? Example mary@smith.com does not return Mary?
