Valid

* letters
* 1wret
* 0123chars
* chars0123
*          


        

Answer 1

^([a-zA-Z0-9]*)([a-zA-Z]+)([a-zA-Z0-9]*)$

Answer 2

this should work ^([a-zA-Z0-9]*)([a-zA-Z]+)([a-zA-Z0-9]*)$ EDIT sry got the * and the + messed up

Answer 3

Personally (I hate regex and find them generally to be hard to maintain), I'd do it in two steps.

1. Is it all alphanumeric?
2. Is there at least one letter?

Answer 4

([0-9]*[a-zA-Z]+)+
