Question 53138 in Javascript Question posted in
A very good W3school tutorial can be found here.

Regex match with a list of special characters is not working for comma, semicolon etc in Angular – Javascript

I am using this pattern for password validation.

Validators.pattern('((?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[!"#$%&`{|}~()*+,-.\:/;<=>?@[\]^_/']).{10,})'),

But this validation is not working for ,;() etc but working for!@#$%^&

These characters are need to be accepted-
!"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[]^_`{|}~

Can anybody suggest where the error is?

    This pattern is working for me-

    Validators.pattern(/(?=.*d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[\!"#$%&'()*+./:;<=>?@[]^_`{|}~,-]).{10,}/),

    If you have a list of special characters to match, you can create a string of escaped characters and use it to build your pattern dynamically:

    const specialChars = ',;:/\~!@#$%^&*()_+{}[]';
const escapedChars = specialChars.replace(/[-[]{}()*+?.,\^$|#s]/g, '\$&');
const pattern = new RegExp(`[${escapedChars}]`);
