hi
is there any reason that you need to check that the names do not contain numbers and stuffs like that??
i could just use grep to search against your telephone directory using the search term, and simply flag out to user "Entry not found" , if it does not match what user types in.
If need be, i can just provide a simple help message telling the user what he can or cannot enter as a search term when the grep fails..
It would be simpler this way..well at least to me...

yaz_hits - Returns number of hits for last search

SYNOPSIS
int yaz_hits (resource $id, [array &$searchresult]) DESCRIPTION
yaz_hits(3) returns the number of hits for the last search. PARAMETERS
o $id - The connection resource returned by yaz_connect(3). o $searchresult - Result array for detailed search result information. RETURN VALUES
Returns the number of hits for the last search or 0 if no search was performed. The search result array (if supplied) holds information that is returned by a Z39.50 server in the SearchResult-1 format part of a search response. The SearchResult-1 format can be used to obtain information about hit counts for various parts of the query (subquery). In par- ticular, it is possible to obtain hit counts for the individual search terms in a query. Information for first subquery is in $array[0], second subquery in $array[1], and so forth. searchresult members +--------------------+---------------------------------------+ | Element | | | | | | | Description | | | | +--------------------+---------------------------------------+ | | | | id | | | | | | | Sub query ID2 (string) | | | | | | | | count | | | | | | | Result count / hits (integer) | | | | | | | | subquery.term | | | | | | | Sub query term (string) | | | | | | | |interpretation.term | | | | | | | Interpretated sub query term (string) | | | | | | | |recommendation.term | | | | | | | Recommended sub query term (string) | | | | +--------------------+---------------------------------------+ Note The SearchResult facility requires PECL YAZ 1.0.5 or later and YAZ 2.1.9 or later.
