Regular Expression - Enter A String That Is 2 - 20 Characters Long And Only Has Letters Doesn't Work
Jun 28, 2010I wanted to try creating a basic expression first. I want someone to enter a string that is 2 - 20 characters long and only has letters. This is what I use so far, and it doesn't work, nothing happens at all when I run it.
Code:
// Check for a valid name.
var namePattern = new RegExp("/^[a-zA-Z]{2,20}$/");
if (namePattern.test(name))
{
window.alert("Invalid");
}
name comes from a input box I display on screen. Also, I would like to update the expression so that there can be one space in the string, but it cannot be at the beginning or end. So this string is like a persons name. Bob is OK, Bob Smith is also OK. Edit: Actually, it is doing something but its always coming back invalid.
Regular Expression Allow Alpha Characters Only?
Jan 27, 2010This is my first serious attempt at using a regular expression.My first name field should allow alpha characters only [A-Za-z], but it seems to be testing for the presence of 1 alpha character. If one is found in the string then anything else is allowed.Bob returns valid which is what I need.Bob1 returns valid but should NOT be valid..1 returns valid not valid which is what I need.My code.
function isValidFirstName(p1_firstName) {

Regular Expression And Match Anything Between Two Characters
Sep 19, 2009I have the following code:
var str = "/dev/filler/test0/";
var patt = new RegExp("/test0/$");
var result = patt.exec(str);
document.write(result);
which returns: /test0/
in the var patt line I would like to replace the hardcoded test0 string with an expression that matches any characters between the two forward slashes. I have tried with little success.

Regular Expression Methods, Problem With Escape Characters
Sep 13, 2006Attempting to use javascript's regular expression methods to match a
particular lab number and building which would then be copied to a pair
of textfields, I found that general matching characters needing a
backslash were not recoginized. The following adapted code that finds
a two-button radio selection shows my problem:
function labstat(){
for (i=1; i<3; i++){
if(document.tester.rm_mod[i-1].checked){
var lb = document.tester.elements["lab"+(i)].value;//either
214 or 215*
var bld = document.tester.bldg.value;
if(/*/.test(lb)){ //error:Undetermined comment
// if(/*/.test(lb)){ //error:Syntax error
// if(/5/.test(lb)){ //works to match only 215*
// if(/5*/.test(lb)){ //true for all
// if(/ddd/.test(lb)){ //false for all
document.tester.room1.value = lb;
document.tester.bldg1.value = bld;
}
}
}
It appears that the escaped characters are not recognized, whichever
form of the method is used, i.e var re = /*/; // or = new
RegExp("*");
if(re.test(lb)){
--------
With the --.match(__) method I have the same problem.

Regular Expression As String Argument?
Feb 24, 2006I'm finishing my javascript form validator (only text fields for now) and here's one of the last things that's left.
I'm using class names of input elements as parameters for my validator. To find them i use Element.hasClassName(id, class) method from prototype library. I want to implement minlength parameter - so i grab a regexp tutorial and after a minute i had something like this minlength[[1-9][0-9]*], which finds minlength[1], minlength[666] and so on.
Great, but how to pass this as a paramter to hasClassName method, which requires string as a className?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMatch Entire String (regular Expression & Javascript)
Jul 23, 2005I'm trying to perform a very simple validation of user input. I
want to verify that the user entered a six-digit string consisting
entirely of numbers. So anything from 000000 to 999999 is considered
valid. The problem that I'm having is getting the validation to work on
the entire string. In other words, 000000 is okay but 000000000000 is
also returning as a match. Here's a quick code block...I have something
along these lines....
/*********************/
<html>
<body>
<INPUT name="txtNumberField" type="text" id="txtNumberField">
<INPUT onClick="fnTestNumberField()" id=Button1 type=button value="Test
Number!" name=btnTest>
<script language=javascript>
function fnTestNumberField()
{
var sNumberValue = document.getElementById("txtNumberField").value;
if (sNumberValue.match(/A[0-9]{6}z/))
{
alert("match");
} else {
alert("no match");
}
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
/******************/
That is failing when I enter 123456 into the textbox. Why, though? I
know I can replace...
if (sNumberValue.match(/A[0-9]{6}z/))
....with something like...
if (sNumberValue.length == 6 && sNumberValue.match(/[0-9]{6}/))
....or I could assign a maxlength to the input box, of course. The thing
is, I really want to know WHY the regular expression isn't responding
as I'd expect. Is there a syntax error somewhere in the code?

Regular Expression That Tests A String To Find Out If Not Empty
Jun 25, 2010Just a quick one here I want a regular expression that tests a string to find out if not empty. I am currently using /^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$/ which allows all alphanumeric characters, however unfortunately does not allow white space. As I am trying to use the RE for a form name input and I don't wish to separate first and last name, I want to allow users to enter their full name including spaces. Can anyone tell me an RE that allows all alphanumeric characters and white space in a string but does not allow an empty string

Yes, but different matches r shown (using RegExp.exec())
Is the second expr. most efficient or in particular scenarios?

Regular Expression To Get The File Name From A URL?
Feb 5, 2009regular express to get the file name from a URL?
It has to be flexible in that the extension can be either 4, 5, or 6 chars (.php, .html, .shtml for example) and needs to cater for and whether querystring parameters exist too.
So, both
[URL]
and
[URL]
The regex should return newthread for both.
