specific characters

[davey10101]

Hi,  I'm trying to do a regex so that a string can only contain the following

 

ABCDEIMSw4

 

and be 2 to 7characters long

 

I've tried the following

 

if(!preg_match("/^[ABCDEIMSw4]{2,7}$/",$data[5])){
         echo "INVALID ";

 

which fails if $data[5] is 'IC'

 

can anyone help?

 

cheers.

Works fine for me:

 

<?php

$data[5] = 'IC';

if ( ! preg_match("/^[ABCDEIMSw4]{2,7}$/", $data[5])){
    echo "INVALID ";
} else {
    echo "VALID";
}

?>

How odd!? I must have gremlins in my machine...

 

Many Thanks
