JQuery Regular expression to accept alphanumeric characters and ' , -

Question

I'm trying to figure out how to get my regular expression to accept certain special characters: ', , and - along with alphanumeric characters. I've had a stab at it but to no avail, and I'm quite new to regex, can anyone help?

Here was my attempt which, surprisingly, didn't work...

/^\d+/,\'\-\$/i

Something like this?

/[0-9a-zA-Z',-]+/

if it has to be a full string, you can use

/^[0-9a-zA-Z',-]+$/
