You should be able to accomplish this with altering the regular expression. If you are having troubles with regular expressions, search google for perl regular expressions there are a ton of examples out there.
eg: This states that the match should be from beginning to end of string matching 0-9, a-z or A-Z and that is all, no special characters. The * means zero or more of these characters. <var-value>^[0-9a-zA-Z]*$</var-value> With a regular expression you can say not any of the above by putting in a character in the front of the character class. <var-value>^[^0-9a-zA-Z]*$</var-value> This is untested, but I have used this type of matching in the past.
