Regex allowing ^ as a input

I have created a regex to only allow characters a-z and A-z. For some reason, the ^ is the only special character that is currently still allowed to be entered as an input. I am not sure why this is happening or how to stop this one character from being allowed to be entered as an input.

console.log( "hello - ^ & world".replace(/[^a-zA-z]/g, '') );

>Solution :

A-z is much wider range than A-Z. It includes A-Z, ton of special chars and a-z.

You made a typo (last z should be uppercase), and full regex should look like

/[^a-zA-Z]/g
