$this->load->helper('email'); issue

[eluser]EEssam[/eluser]

Code:

$this->load->helper('email');


if (valid_email('[email protected]'))
{
        echo 'good';
}

good is never printed. Why?

Please help.

where is the valid_email() function defined?

I just got this working. The var $email had a space at the end so when I used trim() it worked.

The function is defined here anyway:

Thanks.

You bet! Glad it turned out to be something simple. I meant in my last post "are you extending the helper, and if so..." but... blah.
