Question

I need a regex that can accept all letters (A-Z which are case sensitive), numbers (0-9), spaces and most characters. The field must not accept accented characters (ÁÉÚÍÓ), tabs, or the following characters: backslash (), less than (<), greater than (>), tilde (~), equals (=), double quotes (”) or comma (,)

Any ideas on what sort of regex I would need for this?

Answer 1

Something like this should work:

^([A-Za-z0-9 ]+)$

It will match foo bar 1234 FOO BAR but not foo bar 1234 FOO BAR dd or foo bar 1234 FOO BAR\

Note: You can then add the most characters within the square bracket.

Edit: foo bar 1234 FOO BAR dd contains a tab (\t) character but it is being shrunken down.
