Test
Find
Detect zip files

| Expression |
^([a-zA-z]:((\\([-*\.*\w+\s+\d+]+)|(\w+)\\)+)(\w+.zip)|(\w+.ZIP))$ |
| Description |
I used this regex to check to make sure the file type being uploaded through an input tag was a zip file. Changing the '.zip' to another extension will change the file extension being verified. |

Hi, this can pass through your regexp... both "test.zip" and "testzip" (without the '.' )

Hello, I'm trying to use this to validate an zip file upload, and it isn't working. Although, I can't say it is your regex, so I'm not going to down rate it.
I'm trying to use it with ASP.NET's validators. Any suggestions or thoughts?
