I guess the longer search string is not the problem as it would not modify the shorter one; it is vice versa. The real discriminator is the dot in front of "string2". Try
It would leave three element addresses alone. You may want to add the "@" to the end to make sure it only acts on e-mail addresses.

bool ctype_space (string $text)
DESCRIPTION

PARAMETERS

tab, vertical tab, line feed, carriage return and form feed characters.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
A ctype_space(3) example
<?php
$strings = array('string1' => "
", 'string2' => "
arf12", 'string3' => '
');
foreach ($strings as $name => $testcase) {
if (ctype_space($testcase)) {
echo "The string '$name' consists of all whitespace characters.
";
} else {
echo "The string '$name' does not consist of all whitespace characters.
";
}
}
?>
The above example will output:

The string 'string2' does not consist of all whitespace characters.
The string 'string3' does not consist of all whitespace characters.

ues have 256 added in order to allow characters in the Extended ASCII range). Any other integer is interpreted as a string contain-
ing the decimal digits of the integer.
