   Is there a way to modify the email field so that yahoo addresses are not accepted?

   Thanks!

   zn92,

   There may be ways that I am not aware of, but you could have your form be several pages long. An example: First, have the form user enter their email address and then use form logic to direct to them to the actual form page where you are collecting whatever information you are looking for and if they submit a yahoo address, use logic to direct the user to a page that "nicely" (if you are looking to be nice) tells the yahoo.com users that you can not accept emails from yahoo.com.

   Well, guess that won't work. Sorry about that zn92, the continue button gets in the way.

   You can edit your "includes/common-validator.php" file. Search around line 349 for this block of code:

   if(empty($result)){
   				return sprintf($error_message,'%s',$value[0]);
   			}else{
   				return true;
   			}

   replace it with this one:

   if(empty($result)){
   				return sprintf($error_message,'%s',$value[0]);
   			}else{
   				//block Yahoo
   
   				if(strpos(strtolower($value[0]), 'yahoo') !== false ){
   					return "Sorry. Please use a non-Yahoo address";
   				}else{
   					return true;
   				}
   				return true;
   			}

   if(empty($result)){
   return sprintf($error_message,'%s',$value[0]);
   }else{
   //block Yahoo

   if(strpos(strtolower($value[0]), 'yahoo') !== false ){
   return "Sorry. Please use a non-Yahoo address";
   }else{
   //block Gmail

   if(strpos(strtolower($value[0]), 'gmail') !== false ){
   return "Sorry. Please use a non-Gmail address";
   }else{
   return true;
   }
   return true;
   }
