I am using below code
$(function() {
$("#myForm").validate({
rules: {
experience: {
required: true,
regex: '^[0-9]$'
}
},
messages: {
experience: {
required: "Please provide experience",
regex: "Provide a valid input for experience"
}
}
});
});
But the above code is not taking 2 or 22 as valid input? What I am doing wrong? Help required...
Try this regex instead:
^[0-9]+$
Then put it in the code:
$(function() {
$.validator.addMethod("regex", function(value, element, regexpr) {
return regexpr.test(value);
}, "Please enter a valid pasword.");
$("#myForm").validate({
rules: {
experience: {
required: true,
regex: /^[0-9]+$/
}
}
});
});
Here is a working demo:
There is no regex method in validate jquery: You have to create of your regex method of your own
You need to use addmethod
$.validator.addMethod("regx", function(value, element, regexpr) {
return regexpr.test(value);
}, "Provide a valid input for experience.");
Your function here:
$(function() {
$("#myForm").validate({
rules: {
experience: {
required: true,
regex: /^[0-9]$/
}
},
messages: {
experience: {
required: "Please provide experience",
}
}
});
});
In my case, my email field had it's own regex pattern data like
<input id="email" name="email" data-val-regex-pattern="^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,}$">
which conflicted with the pattern I injected for JQuery Validation plugin. I just removed this data- attribute and it worked.
You can use 'pattern' keyword instead of 'regex' in .validate() form of jQuery. Below is sample code :
$('#registerForm').validate({
rules: {
"customer[is_seller]": {
required:true
},
"customer[fname]": {
required:true,
pattern:/^[A-Za-z]+$/
},
"customer[lname]": {
required:true,
pattern:/^[A-Za-z\s]+$/
},
"customer[email]": {
required:true,
email:true
},
"customer[password]": {
required:true
}
},
messages:{
"customer[is_seller]": {
required:"Please select Your category"
},
"customer[fname]": {
required:"Please enter first name.",
pattern:"Special characters not allowed"
},
"customer[lname]": {
required:"Please enter last name."
pattern:"Special characters not allowed"
},
"customer[email]":{
required:"Email Id is required",
email:"Please enter a valid email."
},
"customer[password]":{
required:"Password is required"
}
}
});
regex: '^[0-9]+$'regex: /^[0-9]$/? EDIT : found the source code, shouldn't matter.
