| Jul 5, 2021 at 7:23 | comment | added | jazZRo | I'm not aware of an international standard but I wonder what the purpose of the validation would be. If it is for system constraints you should follow that constraint. If it is for preventing user errors, is it enough to just validate characters or are you doing other things as well? | |
