Sorry Pludi, i think you may have misunderstood my problem, issuing multiple --surnames is not really the problem, its when they issue multiple arguments to the same --surname option
using the exact script you posted above, i issued
wjen we print the array at the bottom of the script, the second argument is not printed

Store args passed in array but not the first 2 args.
# bash
declare -a arr=("$@")
s=$(IFS=, eval 'echo "${arr}"')
echo "$s"
output:
sh array.sh 1 2 3 4 5 6
1,2,3,4,5,6
Desired output:
sh array.sh 1 2 3 4 5 6
3,4,5,6 (2 Replies)
There are many places where I can see the syntax description for optargs, which, usually boils down to this:
getopts OPTSTRING VARNAME
where:
OPTSTRING tells getopts which options to expect and where to expect arguments
VARNAME tells getopts which shell-variable to use for option reporting... (2 Replies)

filter_var
FILTER_VAR(3) 1 FILTER_VAR(3)filter_var - Filters a variable with a specified filterSYNOPSIS
mixed filter_var (mixed $variable, [int $filter = FILTER_DEFAULT], [mixed $options])
DESCRIPTION PARAMETERS
o $variable
- Value to filter.
o $filter
- The ID of the filter to apply. The "Types of filters" manual page lists the available filters. If omitted, FILTER_DEFAULT will
be used, which is equivalent to FILTER_UNSAFE_RAW. This will result in no filtering taking place by default.
o $options
- Associative array of options or bitwise disjunction of flags. If filter accepts options, flags can be provided in "flags" field
of array. For the "callback" filter, callable type should be passed. The callback must accept one argument, the value to be fil-
tered, and return the value after filtering/sanitizing it.
<?php
// for filters that accept options, use this format
$options = array(
'options' => array(
'default' => 3, // value to return if the filter fails
// other options here
'min_range' => 0
),
'flags' => FILTER_FLAG_ALLOW_OCTAL,
);
$var = filter_var('0755', FILTER_VALIDATE_INT, $options);
// for filter that only accept flags, you can pass them directly
$var = filter_var('oops', FILTER_VALIDATE_BOOLEAN, FILTER_NULL_ON_FAILURE);
// for filter that only accept flags, you can also pass as an array
$var = filter_var('oops', FILTER_VALIDATE_BOOLEAN,
array('flags' => FILTER_NULL_ON_FAILURE));
// callback validate filter
function foo($value)
{
// Expected format: Surname, GivenNames
if (strpos($value, ", ") === false) return false;
list($surname, $givennames) = explode(", ", $value, 2);
$empty = (empty($surname) || empty($givennames));
$notstrings = (!is_string($surname) || !is_string($givennames));
if ($empty || $notstrings) {
return false;
} else {
return $value;
}
}
$var = filter_var('Doe, Jane Sue', FILTER_CALLBACK, array('options' => 'foo'));
?>
RETURN VALUES
Returns the filtered data, or FALSE if the filter fails.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
A filter_var(3) example
<?php
var_dump(filter_var('bob@example.com', FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL));
var_dump(filter_var('http://example.com', FILTER_VALIDATE_URL, FILTER_FLAG_PATH_REQUIRED));
?>
The above example will output:
string(15) "bob@example.com"
bool(false)
