[phplib] ooohforms regex question From: Matthew R. MacIntyre (matthew.macintyre <email protected>)

Hello,

I'm having a minor problem with a regex when using the form class.
Basically, I just want for the user to be able to put a "." (period) in the
field as well. I've tried "^[0-9a-z/-.]*$", and "^[0-9a-z/-\.]*$", but they
didn't work.

Here's what I have currently:

$form->add_element(array("type"=>"text",
                         "name"=>"company",
                         "size"=>"32",
                         "valid_regex"=>"^[ 0-9a-z/-]*$",
                         "valid_e"=>"company: Letters, numbers, dashes slashes, and periods only,
please",
                         "icase"=>"1"));

How do I get the "." to be recognized in the regex so that it doesn't cause
javascript errors and the like?

Thanks,

-matt
