I need help with preg_match function in php. I have read a lot of answers on SO, but I can't get any needed information.
So, I would like that preg_match check for characters a-z, A-Z, 0-9,
special characters č, š, ž, đ, ć, Č, Š, Ž, Đ, Ć
and ! " # $ % & / ( ) = ? * ° ' + - * . , - _ ; :
For first part (a-z, A-Z, 0-9)
I saw how it is done, but for next part I don't have idea.
Simply list all characters in a character class:
[a-zA-Z0-9čšžđćČŠŽĐĆ!"#$%&/()=?*°'+*.,_;:-]
Since the minus sign bears special semantics, I moved it to the end where it, well, doesn't have special semantics. Make sure your editor encoding matches the input encoding (i.e. use UTF-8 everywhere).
By the way, that list is really excessive. You may want to simply use \w
, which stands for an arbitrary word character, or \S
(anything but whitespace).
