As some of my pages gave errors after upgrading PHP about some functions where deprecated I noticed also FH uses these functions.

Just wanted to let you know this for a next version.

This function has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0 and REMOVED as of PHP 6.0.0. Relying on this feature is highly discouraged.

I didn't dig in it too deep but I replaced ereg() for preg_match() and ereg_replace() for preg_replace(). Solved my problems..

Warning(!) My workarounds were just to point out to the problem. Not the complete just ctrl-c ctrl-v is the sollution... I said I didn't dig in too far.. preg_match and ereg are not the same and you should investigate what should be done to make the change of functions work correctly. I noticed you changed some code where eregi also should work (case insensitive). Nice... Now to be clear: The following is just one example... not all !! Look at: fields/class.UploadField.php (#525) This line gave a warning: if(preg_match('^image/', $sType) && Because simply change ereg for preg_match is not enough. I read on http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match.php I see there are slashes around the pattern. So I chaned it to this if(preg_match('/^image\//', $sType) && I'm not a 100% sure because I'm not in to it too deep. I hope this helps you... Sorry if I was not completely clear about it last week.
