I used the ctype_digit function to check whether there were only digits within the string, and that seemed to work OK. There does seem to be a lack of a decent preg_match tutorial available, either online or in a text book.
If I'm barking up the wrong tree completely here, please forgive me -...
I think that Wordpress is ideal as a CMS if you want to get your site up-and-running fairly quickly. There are loads of free templates to choose from, so you don't have to fork out loads of money for a web designer. And there are plenty of useful plugins as well.
I would definitely recommend a look at the Laymyhat.com forum. There's loads of information and advice on there about holiday rentals websites and how to increase your sales.
I don't subscribe to the view that you need to spend hundreds and hundreds of pounds to get a simple, half-decent website.
Hi,
Just a quick intro:
My name's Colin and I'm from Oxfordshire. I have been unemployed for the past few months, so I thought I would take the opportunity to learn the web technologies PHP and MySQL. Hopefully this will eventually lead to my new career in IT :rolleyes:
I don't know anything about the effect on Google rankings, but I think hyphenated domain names are gradually becoming a thing of the past. Without hyphens, it's a lot easier to tell others what your domain name is.
