User login validation problem

Hi,

I've problem with user login validation.

This is my code:

                                } else {
                                    // submitted
                                    // initialize array to hold validation errors
                                    $errorList = array();
                                    // check if required input is present
                                    if (!isset($_POST['username']) || trim($_POST['username']) == "") 
                                    {
                                        $errorList[] = "ERROR: Missing value username";
                                    }
                                    // check if input is of correct length
                                    if (strlen($_POST['password']) < 6) 
                                    {
                                        $errorList[] = "ERROR: Incorrect length for value password";
                                    }
                                    // check if username is alphanumeric
                                    if (preg_match("/^[a-z0-9]*$/i", $_POST['username'])
                                    { // LINE 109
                                        $errorList[] = "ERROR: Username must be alphanumeric";
                                    }
                                    // check to see if any validation errors occurred
                                    if (sizeof($errorList) > 0) 
                                    {
                                        // if errors occurred
                                        // display error list
                                        // and terminate script processing
                                        echo "Please review and correct the following errors: <br />";
                                        foreach ($errorList as $e) 
                                        {
                                            echo "$e <br />";
                                        }
                                    } 
                                    else 
                                    {
                                        // and so on
                                    }
                                }

I have attached my sidebar and also the line 109.

It is located in

// check if username is alphanumeric
                                    if (preg_match("/^[a-z0-9]*$/i", $_POST['username'])
                                    { // LINE 109

PHP:

 

You are missing a closing parenthesis:

if (preg_match("/^[a-z0-9]*$/i", $_POST['username']))

PHP:
