Subject: Reg Expression Help
Hello,
I have a regular expression in which I am ensuring the user
enters some valid characters for our system.
Currently the expression is so:
'^[a-zA-Z0-9-_. ]+$'
Meaning, a user can enter a-z or A-Z or 0-9, dashes, underbars
or periods and space.
I have a problem now, because they actually are going to allow
users to enter a '[' or a ']' This is stumping me. How can I incorporate
the possibility of having a [ or ] in the user input?
Thanks,
Scott
