[Code]...
I just want my regular expression to match a backslash. Thats all. Tried giving [\]. Aint working. Tried[x5c] not working. But this hexadecimal character match is working for all the other characters.
Normally I can write regular expressions decently well but for some
reason I am having trouble getting this to work. I am validating form
data and need to throw an error if there are ANY spaces in the field.
abc123 is fine, abc 123 is not. Any character is fine, just not a
space.
I have the following code:
var str = "/dev/filler/test0/";
var patt = new RegExp("/test0/$");
var result = patt.exec(str);
document.write(result);
which returns: /test0/
in the var patt line I would like to replace the hardcoded test0 string with an expression that matches any characters between the two forward slashes. I have tried with little success.
What regular expression will match ANY string that has 10 digits in it?
View 24 Replies View RelatedI found this regular expression on the internet and it works fine when I test it in various validators on the web.
Code:
^(((0?[1-9]|1[012])/(0?[1-9]|1d|2[0-8])|(0?[13456789]|1[012])/(29|30)|(0?[13578]|1[02])/31)/(19|[2-9]d)d{2}|0?2/29/((19|[2-9]d)(0[48]|[2468][048]|[13579][26])|(([2468][048]|[3579][26])00)))$
It's purpose is to check for valid date and allows formats mm/dd/yyyy, m/dd/yyyy, mm/d/yyyy or m/d/yyyy.
When I try it with the code below it always returns null.
Code:
function isValidDate(/* String */ p1_date) {
var x = "^(((0?[1-9]|1[012])/(0?[1-9]|1d|2[0-8])|(0?[13456789]|1[012])/(29|30)|(0?[13578]|1[02])/31)/(19|[2-9]d)d{2}|0?2/29/((19|[2-9]d)(0[48]|[2468][048]|[13579][26])|(([2468][048]|[3579][26])00)))$";

I'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?
is there a way to select elements that match a regular expression? I have a set of divs with id = "wrap_n" where n is a progressive and I need to select them and for each 1 I have to add a function that togggle the "elem_n" div.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to figure out a pattern that can match each letter of the message, but leaves all the html entities alone.
For example, I have a input like this:
<div>
This is the content < Hello >
</div>
Just as an example to make it more clearer, If I wanted to replace the all letters of the message with the number "1" I would have this result:
<div>
1111 11 111 1111111 < 11111 >
</div>
I am trying to test some strings against a regular expression, but have tried at least 10 different online testers with no success at all. Plus I've tried some code to do it myself, again with no success. I know for a fact that some of the strings should match and some shouldn't match, but I am getting "No match" returns from all the strings.
Does somebody have some page code that has the regular expression in some javascript code in the head section of a document, then a form in the body that I can enter the text string, click a button, and I get an alert saying if the string matches or not?
for the character classes [ ], if i want to match ,.[] i cannot put them into the square brackets so how to deal with that? what if the characters are . or ! or ." (<-- combined) it fails if the regexp is [.!(.")] which will treat ( as one of the element. also the book javascript: the definitive guide says that (?=p) requires that the following characters match the pattern p, but do not include those characters in the match. However, the browser failed to figure this out (IE8) i.e. "asd:ert".match(/(?=:)w/) returns null
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a regular expression called mCheck and a variable called usrVal which contains Ƈ/20/41/11/22' I then use the usrVal.match(mCheck) so the code looks like the following
var mCheck = /^[0-9][0-9]/;
if(!usrVal.match(mCheck))
{
usrVal = Ɔ' + usrVal;
}
Now, I was under the impression that if there wasn't a match then the match method would return boolean 'False'. However it is returning 'null' instead... I have used this exact same check on other pages before and it returned false just fine....
I have seen lot of reg. expession with ?:
For dummy eg
(((XXX)ddd)ff)
The above expression is modified as
(?:(?:(XXX)ddd)ff)
Although both the above expr. gives same result. (RegExp.match() gives
same o/p), most of the places , i have seen second option.
Yes, but different matches r shown (using RegExp.exec())
Is the second expr. most efficient or in particular scenarios?
Any comments???
At the moment my code is like:
function telValid(inString) {
var regexp = /^[0-9 +()]+$/;
return (inString.match(regexp,''));
}
which is use to validate phone numbers (UK at the moment)
this works ok, but wont allow - (Dashes) which i need..
tried doing:
function telValid(inString) {
var regexp = /^[0-9 +-()]+$/;
return (inString.match(regexp,''));
}
I am finding it difficult to find a regular expression for following situation(replace)
a b c d = a,b,c d
a b c = a,b c
regular 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.

what will be the regular expression for this line:
Code JavaScript:
var id = $(this).attr("href").substring( $(this).attr("href").lastIndexOf('#'), $(this).attr("href").length);
Basically it gets the string after # in href attribute of clicked anchor tag.
I have this expression:
/(19|20)dd/)[- /.](0[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])[- /.](0[1-9]|1[012])
to detect if my date:
2010-12-15
is valid. It's not working. What do I have wrong?
When Internet Explorer 5.01 for Windows hits the regular expression:
/(?=<)|>/
it complains about an unexpected quantifier. In fact, it seems to complain whenever I use a lookahead expression. Is there any way around this?
does anyone know how I can build a regular expression e.g. for the
string.search() function on runtime, depending on the content of
variables? Should be something like this:
var strkey = "something";
var str = "Somethin like this";
if( str.search( / + strkey + / ) > -1 )
{
...
}
I need a regular expression that will validate a double quote comma
delimited list where the odd entries are numeric and the even are
alphabetical. Each pair must also be on a separate line. For example:
"1","Peter"
"2","Paul"
"3","Mary"
I've used the following expression to validate comma delimited lists, but
without the double quotes, numeric/alpha pairing and line return
restriction.
^([A-Za-z0-9]?)+([,]s?([A-Za-z0-9]?)+)*$
All I'm trying to do is delete the lines which don't contain a particular
string. Actually a filter to edit a log file. I can find and replace a thing
with null, but can't figure out how to find the lines which do not contain
the thing.
Going further, I want to generalize and use a JavaScript variable containing
the decision string, but first I need to worry about the not-within-a-line
problem.
I would like to validate a textbox that numbers cannot be entered into the text input, how do i do this??? With regular expression??

Here is the form in question: spraytechDOTcom/download_form.asp I am so close to getting this to work the way that I want, but here is what I am having an issue with: I cannot seem to make it look for the 12 digits that are in the phone numbers that we are going to collect. Ex. 800-123-4567
It doesn't have require 12 characters if there is another way to get the number to validate looking like the example above. Here is my regular expression that I am struggling with:
var re = /[^d-]$/ It seems to block any letters, but it will accept only 1 number. I would really like it to make sure that the phone number is only entered like this: 800-123-4567.
I have looked for days trying to figure this out and have only gotten close.
