Code:

^([a-zA-Z0-9]{6})$

--------------- Added [DATE]1323036650[/DATE] at [TIME]1323036650[/TIME] ---------------

this might work, or get you going in the right direction. not the best at regex

--------------- Added [DATE]1323036760[/DATE] at [TIME]1323036760[/TIME] ---------------

would be easier if we knew what this was going to be used for.

you can test your expressions with
http://regexlib.com and the Regex tester link

i get this error when i add that to the custom field and the text i am entering is "nycjdm" w/o the quotes

Code:

You did not enter the correct format for the License Plate Text field. Please read the field description for the expected format.
