Hi all, am trying to run a regular expression to a list of user entered data on
some forms.
I've creating what i think is a matching pattern for each category as shown
below:
function validateEntry($regularExpression, $fieldValue)
{
if(preg_match($regularExpression, $fieldValue))
{
return "true";
}
else
{
return "false";
}
}
i made a list of rules that are passed into the function above
1) [a-zA-Z][0-9] //allow any characters and numbers together anywhere within
the text
2) [a-zA-Z] //allow only any charaters in the text
3) [0-9]{2} //allow only digits and they must be 2 in length
4) [a-zA-Z]{1} //allow only 1 character either uppercase or lowercase
but each of these fail the validation when data is entered appropriately ,
seems iam getting something wrong.
