Hi, Ben... and thanks for the reply... Ok... I figured out the problem... my Regex is correct as is, however, a conditional statement prior to it needed to be adjusted. Here's what's going on: jQuery is submitting info via Ajax from a form field to the code below for validation. (In this case I'll use the "Years" form data) <CFIF Not Len(Trim(Form.Years))> <CFSET Years_Error_Message = "Please enter the number of years."> </CFIF> <CFIF Len(Trim(REReplace(Form.Years, "[0-9]","","All"))) and Not IsNumeric(REReplace(Trim(Form.Years), "[0-9]","","All"))> <CFSET Years_Error_Message = "Please enter a valid number for years."> </CFIF> Now, I've change the first condition of the second CFIF to read: <CFIF Len(Trim(REReplace(Form.Years, "[0-9]","","All")))... That verifies that there is data besides digits, which is what I'm trying to find out. The next condition, after the "and", checks to make sure that the data is not numeric after all digits are removed... (this may be redundant now...) Here's the final code (at this point...) for validating the "Years" field. <CFIF Not Len(Trim(Form.Years))> <CFSET Years_Error_Message = "Please enter the number of years."> </CFIF> <CFIF Len(Trim(REReplace(Form.Years, "[0-9]","","All"))) and Not IsNumeric(REReplace(Trim(Form.Years), "[0-9]","","All"))> <CFSET Years_Error_Message = "Please enter a valid number for years."> </CFIF> Rick ..4 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 The most significant release in over 10 years.
