How to create validation with 2 uppercase letter and number?

Question

Assuming this is the student id CC201801194 , I want to restrict from inputting lowercase like this cc20181194 . They should be only input 2 string 9 numbers.

This is what I have got:

$.validator.addMethod("noCaps", function(value, element) {
   return this.optional(element) || /[A-Z]{2}/.test(value); 
});

Answer 1

Can be achieved straight in the HTML markup (without any JS) using the pattern attribute .

<input type="text" pattern="[A-Z]{2}[0-9]{9}">

 input + span:after { position: absolute; padding-left: 5px; } p.hint { display: none; } input:valid + span:after { content: "✓"; } input:placeholder-shown + span:after{ content: ""; } input:invalid + span:after { content: "✖"; } input:invalid + span + p.hint { display: block; }

 <form> <input type="text" pattern="[AZ]{2}[0-9]{9}" Placeholder="Student ID"> <span class="validity"></span> <p class="hint">Student ID must be 2 capitals and 9 numbers.</p> </form>
