[SOLVED] Use RegExpValidator to validate strings

[Per-Erik Kristensson]

I want to check if a string is valid with regular expression. I have found the RegExpValidator object, but only with sample where a TextInput is used. How do I use this to just validate a string? I want to have something like this:

@
RegExpValidator
{
id: regexpValidator;
regExp: /[0-9]+/
}

function test()
{
    var textIsValid = regexpValidator.regExp.validate("Hello world!", 0);
}

Hi,

Use the regexp directly:

@
function test()
{
var regExp = /[0-9]+/;
var textIsValid = regExp.test("Hello world!");
}
