I remember certain regex patterns it makes a difference if you move certain 
characters to the end of the list.

Subject: Re: how to mxml restrict with binding AS3 variable?

I found by experimentation that the following works, 

    public static const RESTRICT_STRING_FOR_CSV:String = "0-9 
a-zA-Z\&\"'~!@#$%*()\\-_+=[]|;:<>.?,\\^{}"; 

which uses ONE backslash to escape the ampersand and double-quote characters, 
but TWO backslashes to escape the minus sign (e.g. \\-) and the caret (e.g. 
\\^). However, I can't seem to figure how to escape the backslash character (I 
tried \\ and \\\ and neither worked). 

Is this making sense to anyone? Any idea how to escape backslash?
