Good night Michael. I'm using your regexp, but I need make a change. I need validate dates separates for point and comma ';'. I was all the day trying it but finally I can´t. I took your redExk and I changed for this:
^(regExp without ^ and $)(?;?(regExp))*$
Please help me.
Another thing. I don't understand the expression '(?' what do does it? You use it like prefix in all the regExp.
Best Regards,
René

ok, I realized that if I only input dd/mm/yyyy, this regexp works good. However I never use the time part, so I trimmed the script just to save some space and ended up with:
^(?=\d)(?:(?!(?:(?:0?[5-9]|1[0-4])(?:\.|-|\/)10(?:\.|-|\/)(?:1582))|(?:(?:0?[3-9]|1[0-3])(?:\.|-|\/)0?9(?:\.|-|\/)(?:1752)))(31(?!(?:\.|-|\/)(?:0?[2469]|11))|30(?!(?:\.|-|\/)0?2)|(?:29(?:(?!(?:\.|-|\/)0?2(?:\.|-|\/))|(?=\D0?2\D(?:(?!000[04]|(?:(?:1[^0-6]|[2468][^048]|[3579][^26])00))(?:(?:(?:\d\d)(?:[02468][048]|[13579][26])(?!\x20BC))|(?:00(?:42|3[0369]|2[147]|1[258]|09)\x20BC))))))|2[0-8]|1\d|0?[1-9])([-.\/])(1[012]|(?:0?[1-9]))\2((?=(?:00(?:4[0-5]|[0-3]?\d)\x20BC)|(?:\d{4}(?:$|(?=\x20\d)\x20)))\d{4}(?:\x20BC)?))?$
which worked for me... Many thanks for your date scripts, they are truly great!

what is the value for this expression to validate only date (not time)?
Also, this reg ex. can be used in .net?
thanks

Thanks again Michael, it is now working.
p.s. I'm from the UK so am used to dates in the 'correct' format...... ;o)
Keep up the good work - these expressions are saving me alot of coding time (and script space) !

Yeah you are having syntax issues. If you use the
var re = new RegExp(pattern)
syntax you have to escape all the backslashes. Try it with the
var re = /pattern/
syntax
See http://www.regular-expressions.info/javascript.html for more info
BTW this pattern is dd/mm/yyyy so the date you are testing with is Feb 10th

I tried the Regular Expression above in Firefox 1.01 and IE 6.0 using javascript as per the below:
var dateRE = new RegExp('^(?=\d)(?:(?!(?:(?:0?[5-9]|1[0-4])(?:\.|-|\/)10(?:\.|-|\/)(?:1582))|(?:(?:0?[3-9]|1[0-3])(?:\.|-|\/)0?9(?:\.|-|\/)(?:1752)))(31(?!(?:\.|-|\/)(?:0?[2469]|11))|30(?!(?:\.|-|\/)0?2)|(?:29(?:(?!(?:\.|-|\/)0?2(?:\.|-|\/))|(?=\D0?2\D(?:(?!000[04]|(?:(?:1[^0-6]|[2468][^048]|[3579][^26])00))(?:(?:(?:\d\d)(?:[02468][048]|[13579][26])(?!\x20BC))|(?:00(?:42|3[0369]|2[147]|1[258]|09)\x20BC))))))|2[0-8]|1\d|0?[1-9])([-.\/])(1[012]|(?:0?[1-9]))\2((?=(?:00(?:4[0-5]|[0-3]?\d)\x20BC)|(?:\d{4}(?:$|(?=\x20\d)\x20)))\d{4}(?:\x20BC)?)(?:$|(?=\x20\d)\x20))?((?:(?:0?[1-9]|1[012])(?::[0-5]\d){0,2}(?:\x20[aApP][mM]))|(?:[01]\d|2[0-3])(?::[0-5]\d){1,2})?$');
return (dateRE.test(sDate));
it always returns false - for dates like 10.02.2005 or 10/02/2005...
I've tried several other RE's from this site.. and none of them (date ones anyway) have worked... is this just my misunderstand
