Cannot seem to get a regex to check a string for the following

        space tab ' " ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) + = : ; / \

if(preg_match('[\'" ,!@#$%\^&*()+=:;/\\]',$mystring))

simply need a true if it contains any of these characters (for cleaning up
usernames).  thinking it may be easier to parse for only allowed characters.

don't use regex often enough to be profficient, assistance is appreciated
