ILLiad Regular Expression Validator

This tool is intended to validate regular expressions used for customization purposes in ILLiad.
Before entering any new regular expression into your Customization Manager, you should first test it using the ILLiad Regular Expression Validator.

  1. Enter the Regular Expression to be tested into the field labeled Regular Expression.
  2. Then enter a value to be validated against that regular expression in the field labeled Input Text.
  3. To test the Input Text value against the specified Regular Expression, click the Submit button.
    Note: The current implementation is not case-sensitive.
  4. Results of the test will show in the grey status line bar below. There are two possible results:

    Match
    The value in the Input Text field successfully matches the regular expression.

    No Match
    The value in the Input Text field does Not match the regular expression.

We encourage you to test several different Input Text values against any given regular expression to be sure that your expression allows and disallows what it should.

For more information on creating regular expressions for your ILLiad web interface, please see this section in the ILLiad 8 documentation:
