Hi all,
I somehow just couldn't get my regular expression syntax correct. Will you please help me?
some examples of my valid string is: sinx0401-001-45 hkgx0403-020-12 jktx0402-000-01 bkkx0407-013-44
the definition is: 1st 4 characters - can only be "sinx" or "hkgx" or "bkkx" or "jktx" next 4 characters - numbers 0 to 9 next 1 character - a dash "-" next 3 characters - numbers 0 to 9 next 1 character - a dash "-" last 2 characters - numbers 0 to 9
(sin|hkg|bkk|jkt)x[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{2}
