Note that $ and . are special regex characters so must be "escaped". It
means this:
^ start
\$ dollar sign
[0-9] first digit
\. Decimal point
[0-9]{2} second and third digits
$ end

Subject: CFINPUT pattern question
Hello everyone,
I have a form field that I want to use to collect a dollar amount. I am
using CFFORM with the CFINPUT tag and want to use the
[validate="regular_expression"] option with the [pattern="desired pattern "]
option to restrict the input to any dollar value from $0.01 to $9.99. I have
it all done except the needed pattern. _javascript_ regular _expression_ pattern
to validate input. Omit leading and trailing slashes and then it referrs you
to another section of the docs. I looked through the CF docs and found
nothing and then did some google searches for it and although I found a ton
of info on regex I was unable to find how to write the pattern.
Can anyone point me to a place to get this info?
Thanks,
Kevin
