Regex to Match Symbols: !$%^&*()_+|~-=`{}[]:";'<>?,./

Question

I\'m trying to create a Regex test in JavaScript that will test a string to contain any of these characters:

!$%^&am         


        

Answer 1

The most simple and shortest way to accomplish this:

/[^\p{L}\d\s@#]/u

Explanation

[^...] Match a single character not present in the list below

• \p{L} => matches any kind of letter from any language

• \d => matches a digit zero through nine

• \s => matches any kind of invisible character

• @# => @ and # characters

Don't forget to pass the u (unicode) flag.
