That should be working for you. I created a simple form
http://rafb.net/p/BWTQej77.html. It has the same idea as your regex
(except a bit simpler so i could just test it, without having to think
about your pattern). It works fine if i submit the 'test field
blankly.
Are you sure there isn't another part of your validator schema that is
causing it to be invalid?
