What is the Regular Expression For "Not Whitespace and Not a hyphen"
I tried this but it doesn't work :
[^\s-]
Any Ideas?
Solution 1:
[^\s-]
should work and so will
[^-\s]
-
[]
: The char class -
^
: Inside the char class^
is the negator when it appears in the beginning. -
\s
: short for a white space -
-
: a literal hyphen. A hyphen is a meta char inside a char class but not when it appears in the beginning or at the end.
Solution 2:
It can be done much easier:
\S
which equals [^ \t\r\n\v\f]
