I gave it a college try, but I'm stumped. I'm trying to find consecutive slashes within a string. The rest of the regex works great, but the last part I can't quite get.

Here's what I have:

val.match( /^[\/]|[~"#%&*:<>?\\{|}]|[\/|.]$/ ) 

and finding this thread, I decided to update my code to no avail: RegEx to find two or more consecutive chars

val.match( /^[\/]|[\/]{2,}|[~"#%&*:<>?\\{|}]|[\/|.]$/ ) 

What do I need to get this thing going?
