Previously, I posted about Woo Commerce Products Add-Ons on using a formula to determine the value of a wood radius that needs to be cut.
Today, while developing a client’s site, I realize that phone number fields requires some special characters like ‘()’ and “+” and of course spaces.
I use CoPilot to create for me that Regex, and my prompt was:
Give me an example of a regex pattern that includes symbols
To create a regex pattern that allows alphanumeric characters, specific symbols like @, #, $, %, and &, as well as spaces, you can use the following pattern:
^[a-zA-Z0-9@#$%&\s]+$
Here’s the breakdown of the pattern:
^asserts the position at the start of the string.[a-zA-Z0-9@#$%&\s]matches any letter (both uppercase and lowercase), digit (0-9), the specified symbols (@,#,$,%,&), or a whitespace character (\s).+ensures that the pattern occurs one or more times.$asserts the position at the end of the string.
This pattern will match any string that contains a mix of the allowed letters, digits, symbols, and spaces.
