Need a regex to match everything that does not contain a '?'

Question

I want a regex with this rule: everything what not contains ?

I tried this but doesn't works:

^(?!\?)$

Answer 1

 [^?]*

(zero or more not-?). You might need to escape the ? with a \ depending on your regex impementation. If your regex doesn't match agains the whole string by default, then

 ^[^?]*$

This will also match the empty string. If you don't want that, replace * with +

Answer 2

To match any string that does not have a ? in it you can use:

^[^?]*$

You can also use a negative lookahead as:

^(?!.*\?).*$
