hahaha, ignore me, I'm a moron. I forgot the pointer advances in the innermost loop. I wrote it out in my brainstorming but forgot to put it there. sooooo, here's the correted snippit: int isname(const char *str, const char *namelist) { const char *curname, *curstr, *curword; int found; for(curword = str;;) { for(curname = namelist;;) { for(found = 0, curstr = curword;;curstr++, curname++) { if((!*curstr) || (*curstr == '-')) { found = 1; break; } if(LOWER(*curstr) != LOWER(*curname)) { found = 0; break; } } if(found == 1) break; for(; isalpha(*curname); curname++); if(!*curname) return (0); curname++; } for(; *curword && *curword != '-'; curword++); if(!*curword) return (1); curword++; if(!*curword) return (1); } } +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
