agaved has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi all
I want to check if a date is in the form '26-04' or '26-04-12' (both will do).
The divider can be '.' and '_', too.
I used as regexp /\d{2}\-._\d{2}(\-._\d{2})*/ but it doesn't match ... I cannot understand why.
I guess it will be pretty obvious in hindsight, but I have been banging my head on the wall for hours and couldn't get through.
Any help much appreciated.
