PHP US phone, US zip code and Email Validation class  [PHP]

Posted by tomfmason 1 year, 2 months ago 34 comments

This is a small validation class that I wrote for a project a long time ago. This currently has validation filters for US phone number format, US zip code format(12345 and 12345-6789 etc) and email addresses. You can pass your own custom validations to the construction like so $validation = new Validation($your_filter_array);.

			'regex'=>'/(^\d{5}$)|(^\d{5}-\d{4}$)/',
			'message'=>'is not a valid US zipcode format.'

	);
	public $filter_list = array();
	
	function Validation($filters=false) {
		if(is_array($filters)) {
			$this->filters = $filters;
		} else {
			$this->filters = array();
		}
	}
	
	function validate($filter,$value) {
		if(in_array($filter,$this->filters)) {
			if(in_array('default_filter',$this->filters[$filter])) {
				$f = $this->default_filters[$this->filters[$filter]['default_filter']];
				if(in_array('message',$this->filters[$filter])) {
					$f['message'] = $this->filters[$filter]['message'];
				}
			} else {
				$f = $this->filters[$filter];
			}
		} else {
			$f = $this->default_filters[$filter];
		}
		if(!preg_match($f['regex'],$value)) {
			$ret = array();
			$ret[$filter] = $f['message'];
			return $ret;
		}
		return true;
	}
}

//example usage
$validation = new Validation();
echo nl2br(print_r($validation->validate('phone','555-555-1212'),true));
echo nl2br(print_r($validation->validate('phone','(555)-555-1212'),true));
echo nl2br(print_r($validation->validate('phone','555 555 1212'),true));
echo nl2br(print_r($validation->validate('phone','555.555.1212'),true));
echo nl2br(print_r($validation->validate('phone','(555).555.1212'),true));
echo nl2br(print_r($validation->validate('phone','(555)---555.1212'),true));//will not match
