JQuery NIC Support

Question

I need a regular expression to validate the Pakistan National Identification Card (NIC), which contains numbers and dashes in the format below

12345-1234567-1

Please, help..

Answer 1

you can use standard javaScript to test the regex expression:

 var idToTest = '12345-1234567-1', myRegExp = new RegExp(/\d{5}-\d{7}-\d/); if(myRegExp.test(idToTest)) { //if true } else { //if false } 

Answer 2

Try the following:

 var cnic_no = '12345-1234567-9', var cnic_no_regex = /^[0-9+]{5}-[0-9+]{7}-[0-9]{1}$/; if(cnic_no_regex.test(cnic_no)) { alert('Right'); } else { alert('Wrong'); }

Answer 3

This will confirm it. (For now, the format will be exactly as you declare)

\d{5}-\d{7}-\d

Answer 4

it should be like

 myRegExp = new RegExp(/\d{5}-\d{7}-\d{1}$/); 

Answer 5

You can use this regular expression to check CNIC

 ^[0-9+]{5}-[0-9+]{7}-[0-9]{1}$
