could you give me regex for :YYMMDDhhmmss (YY = year (00-99), MM (month = 01-12), DD (date, check date detail (leap year, 30st, 31st), hh (hour 00-23), mm (minute 00-59), ss (second 00 -59)

thank you very much

Hi erik,

This leap years checking for date can be a challenge. Plz try these forums where are RegEX experts:

I want to use like 05.01, 13.00, 23.59.

I had changed a little bit.

^(([0-1][0-9])|([2][0-3]))[.]([0-5][0-9])$

Or Like This allowing patterns like :

9:00, 0:00

((([0-1]\d|2[0-3]):([0-5]\d))|([0-9]:([0-5]\d)))

Cheers
