RE: RE: RE: Matching an IP address

I didn't explicitly say that you should... i was just pointing out that his regex looks like it would allow:

023.45.34.2
000.34.23.2
etc, etc...

Thanks for pointing that out though, i wasn't terribly clear... -Mark mlogan@ccs.neu.edu

This is a good point, and I believe some stacks even treat octets with a leading zero as octal versions of the IP address (!), in which case none of the solutions I've seen presented on this topic would be adequate.	[reply]
