I want to write a regular expression that matches each word in a sentence:
My regular expression:"\b(\w+)\b
"
Result:
While it works well with English Words. It does not work when using Arabic words. How could I accomplish the same feat for Arabic words?
Try this:-
function HasArabicCharacters(text) { var arregex = /[\u0600-\u06FF]/; alert(arregex.test(text)); }
Arabic character set of list
[\u0600-\u06ff]|[\u0750-\u077f]|[\ufb50-\ufc3f]|[\ufe70-\ufefc]
As of Unicode 6.1, the Arabic script is contained in the following blocks:
Arabic (0600—06FF, 225 characters) Arabic Supplement (0750—077F, 48 characters) Arabic Extended-A (08A0—08FF, 39 characters) Arabic Presentation Forms-A (FB50—FDFF, 608 characters) Arabic Presentation Forms-B (FE70—FEFF, 140 characters) Rumi Numeral Symbols (10E60—10E7F, 31 characters) Arabic Mathematical Alphabetic Symbols (1EE00—1EEFF, 143 characters)
