Sweet!  That seems to work...  What is the "^\d+$" doing exactly?  I've
done a few searches and didn't come up with anything...  where would its

It is a regular expression where ^ means the start of the string, \d means a decimal digit \d+ means one or more digits and $ means the end of the string.

The exact syntax of regular expressions differs from programming language to programming language but most tutorials on regular expressions should cover that.
