Regular expression required

Question

Please give me one regular expression which mathes these kind of name formats like:

1) M/S.KHALIL WARDE S.A.L.

2) Oliver Twist

The expression should allow alphabets, dot, space and / only.

thanks

Answer 1

Perhaps:

^[A-Za-z. /]+$

That matches uppercase A-Z, lowercase a-z, dot, space, and slash. The + means repeated one or more times (so this won't match an empty string). The leading ^ and trailing $ means the match is "anchored" to the start and end of the string, so it will check your whole string.
