Java Regular Expression. Check if String contains ONLY Letters
- by user69514
How do I check if a String contains only letters in java? I want to write an if statement that will return false if there is a white space, a number, a symbol or anything else other than a-z A-Z. My string must contain ONLY letters.
I thought I could do it this way, but I'm doing it wrong:
if( ereg("[a-zA-Z]+", $myString))
return true;
else
return false;
