hey dude, thank you very much, it works well, But want to know, 1. what was my mistake, as indexOF should work. 2. IS .test(), will be always good for this kind of validation.

@SAM it was because of the return true in the else portion of the index condition. see jsfiddle.net/arunpjohny/fAywy/3 the problem is if the first character is not a special character you where not continuing the tests... it was just returning true
