Hello
>> /^[a-zA-Z0-9]{10}$/
When you use double quoted strings don't forget to escape the $ since it
indicates a variable or just use single quoted strings.
I'm not sure but do you really want all your checked vars to be 10
characters long? The above pattern only matches when the string is
contained of 10 alphanumeric letters so any string shorter than 10 or
longer than 10 will not match.
Maybe you just want /^[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,10}$/ or leave the {} part if you
just want any length string.
