Regex - Does not contain certain Characters

Question

I need a regex to match if anywhere in a sentence there is NOT either < or >.

If either < or > are in the string then it must return false.

I had a partial success with this but only if my < > are at the beginning or end:

(?!<|>).*$

I am using .Net if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the help.

Answer 1

^[^<>]+$

字符类中的插入符号（ [^ ]表示匹配任何内容，但这意味着，字符串的开头，然后是除<和>之外的任何内容中的一个或多个，然后是字符串的结尾。

Answer 2

Here you go:

^[^<>]*$

This will test for string that has no < and no >

If you want to test for a string that may have < and > , but must also have something other you should use just

[^<>] (or ^.*[^<>].*$)

Where [<>] means any of < or > and [^<>] means any that is not of < or > .

And of course the mandatory link .
