ok, you will need to create a recordset to return the allowed domains. After the recordset code, add the following code to loop through it and create a new variable that contains a pipe separated list of domains:

php:
<?php 

$okDomains 
"";
do {
    
$okDomains .= $row_recordsetName['domainName']."|";
} while (
$row_recordsetName mysql_fetch_assoc($recordsetName)); 
$okDomains substr_replace($okDomains,"",-1);
?>




when you add the regular expression validation it will create a line similar to this:

php:
$WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateRX(((isset($_POST["emailField"]))?$_POST["emailField"]:"") . "","/^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@(apple.com|ibm.com|webassist.com)$/i",true,1);



edit that to use the $okDomains variable instead of the static listing of domains:

php:
$WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateRX(((isset($_POST["emailField"]))?$_POST["emailField"]:"") . "","/^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@(".$okDomains.")$/i",true,1);




make sure that the code order is correct, the validation may be placed before the recordset. The order needs to be:
-recordset
-do to create the $okDomains variable
-Validation
