Question

Check input tag which have value only as <br/> tag inside as value using jQuery

I am using an htmlEditor in my project, sometimes user just press enter key only in textarea field. It will get as <br/><br/><br/><br/> as value when saving.
I want to avoid this tags when saving.

How to validate this in jquery ?

If any other characters like <br/>Just <br/> Example <br/> is present then I want to save it with break tag itself.

Answer 1

using a regex like this would help.

/^(\<br\/>)+$/.test($("textarea").val());
