function check_input($input){
if(preg_match("/^[\@a-zA-Z0-9_\:\,\(\)]/", $input) && strlen($input) <= 15){
return true;
}
else{
print "Invalid parameter: $input<br>";
return false;
}
}
//TODO are we being too difficult on what we accept as a password? ie: pass starting with ; is invalid
function check_sensitive_input($input){
if(preg_match("/^[\@a-zA-Z0-9_\:\,\(\)]/", $input) && strlen($input) <= 15){
return true;
}
else{
print "Invalid sensitive parameter<br>";
return false;
}
}
