Regular expression for only characters a-z, A-Z

Question

I don\'t know how to create a regular expression in JavaScript or jQuery.

I want to create a regular expression that will check if a string contains only characters

Answer 1

/^[a-zA-Z]+$/ 

Off the top of my head.

Edit:

Or if you don't like the weird looking literal syntax you can do it like this

new RegExp("^[a-zA-Z]+$");
