i'm using jquery validation plugin.
i have to validate price input.
the column in my database is float(7,2)
so my price accept
I already did the validation in server side with this php code
if (strstr($price, '.') && (strlen(substr(strrchr($price, "."), 1)) > 2 || strlen($price) > 8 ) ) {
echo "invalid format";
}
elseif (!strstr($price, '.')) {
if(strlen($price) > 5 )
{
echo "invalid format";
}
}
i need to make the same validation in client side with adding new method using jquery validation plugin.
but i can't find the true reg expression to do that.
Update

Should "and less than or equal 2 digits before comma" be "and less than or equal 2 digits after comma"?
Edit, Updated
You can use pattern
attribute with RegExp
\d{1,5},\d{1,2}|\d{1,7}
<form>
<input type="text"
pattern="\d{1,5},\d{1,2}|\d{1,7}"
title="a) any number less than or equal 7 digits; b) any number with less than or equal 5 digits before comma and less than or equal 2 digits after comma"
required />
<input type="submit" />
</form>
