OK, you've told us what your code does. Now can you explain what the
problem is? "A new regex which wasn't working" is a bit vague.

* Does it throw an error?
- If so, can we have the error message?

* Does it mark invalid strings as valid?
- Or vice versa?

Just posting a pile of code with an explanation of what it does and
leaving the rest of us to figure out what the problem is, is not helping
us to help you.
