need some help here...

i have the following pattern (part of a pattern which validates urls..)

i know its still not perfect but i have a question about it...

this is the pattern : ("((http)|(https))://(w{3}\.)(\w)")

it valids this : http://www.w

should be ok.

but when i enter this:

http://www.ww....

it also ok....hmm...how to fix this that it would be accept the dots..??

its problem in here (\w).

use the "^" and "$" characters.

"^((http)|(https)):\/\/(w{3}\.)(\w)$"

This will match: "http://www.w"

but not "http://www.w..." or ".....http://www.w" etc.

Good luck with learning regular expressions.
