1. Using PHP database functions
2. Regular Expression using PHP
Find the codes below...
For the first challenge, you just need to:
1. Add field to input form (line 274 -275)
2. Add column to the database (done using MySQL)
3. Modify code to update the column from the field (line 134, 139-141, 180, 243, 248, 250)
4. Display the country of the guest. (line 55, 60-64)

</html>Second challenge:
If you don't know about Regular Expression, go to http://www.regular-expressions.info/tutorial.html to get better understanding how Regular Expression works.
PHP has a function that performs a regular expression match called preg_match.
The challenge is to check whether the number entered is a valid Australian number and whether it's a mobile or land line number.
Regular expression for valid Australian phone number can be found on http://regexlib.com/REDetails.aspx?regexp_id=66. You can also copy the regex from the code below.
<?php
if(!empty($_GET['phone']))
{
$pattern = '/(^1300\d{6}$)|(^1800|1900|1902\d{6}$)|(^0[2|3|7|8]{1}[0-9]{8}$)|(^13\d{4}$)|(^04\d{2,3}\d{6}$)/';
$subject = $_GET['phone'];
if(preg_match($pattern, $subject)>0)
{
echo "Your phone number is Australian.";
if(substr($subject,0,2) == "04")
echo " It's a mobile phone";
else
echo " It's a land line / premium number.";
}
else
echo "Not an Australian number";
}
?>
