The following javascript regex breaks in safari getting SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: invalid group specifier name"
/^(?!\s)[A-Za-z0-9\'\.\-\,\s]*(?<!\s)$/.test('ABCD@#');
Can someone please help me to re write the regex which can work in safari?
I find out that safari doesn’t support lookbehind but still not able to re write the whole regex which can be good for safari.
>Solution :
Modify your pattern to avoid the negative lookbehind. Since you seem to want a non whitespace character as the last character, just use a character class for that.
/^(?!\s)[A-Za-z0-9'.,\s-]*[A-Za-z0-9'.,-]$/.test('ABCD@#')
Side note: your current pattern looks wrong for what you are trying to match.
