PHP - Function eregi() is deprecated error message.

Hi,
I am receiving the following error message.

Deprecated: Function eregi() is deprecated in /home/mywebsit/public_html/includes/functions.php on line 262

How should I recode the code below to correct the error?

$GP_uploadAction = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'])) {
if (!eregi("GP_upload=true", $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'])) {
            $GP_uploadAction .= "?".$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING']."&GP_upload=true";
      } else {
            $GP_uploadAction .= "?".$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'];
      }
} else {
$GP_uploadAction .= "?"."GP_upload=true";
}

$GP_uploadAction = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'])) {
  if (preg_match("/GP_upload=true/", $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING']) == 0) {
            $GP_uploadAction .= "?".$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING']."&GP_upload=true";
      } else {
            $GP_uploadAction .= "?".$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'];
      }
} else {
  $GP_uploadAction .= "?"."GP_upload=true";
}

For PHP developers, the PHP.net web site is an invaluable resource. If you are upgrading to PHP 5.4, you really need to read this:
http://php.net/migration54

On that page you will also find a line with the links for the other recent upgrade paths. It says something like this:
See also the migration guides for PHP versions 5.0.x, 5.1.x, 5.2.x and 5.3.x.

The migration guides explain what is deprecated and what is removed, as well as what is added in each new release of PHP.

This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.
