正则表达式只允许选择字母表字符

Question

Can someone define a regex set that would only allow two letters "E" and "P".

I have a web app where certain text areas need to allow entry of just those two characters.

Thank you.

Answer 1

/^[ep]+$/

That's it.

• ^ means "Start of string"
• [ep] is our characters "e" and "p"
• + means "repeated 1 or more times"
• $ means "end of string"

In case you also want to accept E and P as well, you can add an i modifier for case-insensitivity:

/^[ep]+$/i

To use in javascript:

var testingRegex = /^[ep]+$/i;

if (testingRegex.match(myString)) {
    //Yes, it matches!
} else {
    //Error!
}
