Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated, Please Help Update my Code !

Hello,
I got error message in resgitering new members page on my website,

Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in .../modules/account/account.inc.php on line 1315

The Code in this line:

    
if(ereg('search', $VAR['_page']))
        $arr = $static_var->generate_form('account', 'add', 'search');
        else
        $arr = $static_var->generate_form('account', 'add', 'update');

Code (markup):

I know abit about code change to match the new version of PHP,
so please can anyone help me updating this line,
to get rid of the error message in the front-end.

Thanks alot,

 

Use this function instead of ereg()

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match.php

And see the list of differences when going to PCRE
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.posix.php

 

Thanks for your reply,
but can you please tell me how should my code line be after change ?
Thanks

 

Any help please ?????

 

if(preg_match('/^search$/', $VAR['_page']))
        $arr = $static_var->generate_form('account', 'add', 'search');
        else
        $arr = $static_var->generate_form('account', 'add', 'update');

PHP:

Haven't tested but is should work.

 

Thanks alot for your concern,

No-no-no, if you need code correcting work, then you should order it.
My help was only to teach and show the correct location, where to fetch information, that is why I supplied the links.
