I'm trying to write a regex in an html pattern attribute to match the input(type="number")
I've tried ([11995]+[0-9]) but it's not working.
Any help with this will be highly appreciated! Thanks.
A sequence of numbers when written inside a square brackets means a single character and any character contained within those square brackets. Hence, [11995] means either 1 or 9 or 5. The correct way to write that regex would be this,
\b11995[0-9]{11}\b in case you want to match such numbers in larger text
OR
^11995[0-9]{11}$ in case you want to match the number as whole.
11995\d{11} will match 11995, and then 11 more digits afterwards. \b11995\d{11}\b asserts it is followed on both sides by a "word boundary", and ^11995\d{11}$ asserts it is the only thing in the string. These can be easily modified to match other delimiters, such as " or <>.
