Regular Expressions

Hi,

I'm trying to figure a method of disallowing certain characters in a variable.

Say, the list:
#&;´'\"|*?~<>^()[]{}$

How do I do that? Thanks for your help.

/* Let's assume that your variable is called $foo */

if (preg_match("/^[^#&;´'\"|*?~<>\^()[\]{}$]+$/",$foo)) {
  //do bad variable format stuff
  //
  //
}
else {
  //format accepted
  //do other stuff here
}
