RegularExpressionValidator canadian postal code help
im using the following expression to validate a canadian postal code
^([ABCEGHJKLMNPRSTVXY]\d[ABCEGHJKLMNPRSTVWXYZ])\ {0,1}(\d[ABCEGHJKLMNPRSTVWXYZ]\d)$
which works fine with the following formats:
M5E 1J2 OR M5E1J2
But i also want it to include recognize the following format M5E-1J2, what could i include to make this happen
Thanks!

Somone else's response in another forums resolved this, here's the solution:
See that \space in the middle?
Replace it with [ \-]{0,1} There is a space followed by \-.
