jQuery Validator Issue

[Goldy]

Hi all,

I have this bit of code that checks if the user has entered a 5 digit number in a box.

jQuery.validator.addMethod("IDValidation", function (value, element) {

            return /^\d{5}$/.test(value);
        }, "Incorrect Code");

I want to change it so that it only checks the user has entered 5 characters (digits or alphabet). I honestly dont know my way around jQuery or PHP at all!

Something like:

jQuery.validator.addMethod("IDValidation", function (value, element) {

            return /^[0-9a-z]{5}$/i.test(value);
        }, "Incorrect Code");

Thanks Phil! This worked

            return /^\[0-9a-z]{5}$/i.test(value);
        }, "Incorrect Code");
