Matching heights debug

[ricky_vancouver]

As in 6'2, I want to be find strings of the form:

6

6'2

6'22 (I suppose I'd like up to two decimal points)

6.2 (for those stubborn people who use odd punctuation)

6,2 (for those stubborn people who use odd punctuation)

6 2 (for those stubborn people who use odd punctuation)

 

I have the following expresssion

/^[1-9]?((.|,|\'|\s)([0-9]{1,2}))$/

 

However while it successfully matches the above it also matches

6666

666

66

 

Now I can see where perhaps three digits come from, though I'm not sure why it didn't demand something from the punctuation group, but I don't clueless as to how there could be 4 digits.

 

Any help plucking out these faulty matches would be much appreciated!

you must escape . (dot) too

/^[1-9]?((\.|,|\'|\s)([0-9]{1,2}))$/
