ADF Regular expression Jspx page error

Question

Hi Friends
Hi all i have requirement that my inputtext box may include charchters numbers and '&' as a special charchters
so i written the below regular expression in validateRegExp tag
<af:validateRegExp pattern="[a-zA-Z0-9&]" messageDetailNoMatch="Inproper text"/>
but when i enter '&' char in the regex of the tag of my jspx page then it gives me compilier error, so is there any way to write the escape charachters in regular expression like '\ ' in java to avoid above problem.
Thanks in advance

Hi..
can you try with following
for Ex: aA1& pattern
><af:inputText id="it1">
><af:validateRegExp pattern="[a-z][A-Z][0-9][&]" messageDetailNoMatch="Inproper text"/>
></af:inputText>
for Ex: awerrAFDFDF12343&&& pattern(Every item should shown at least one time..)
><af:inputText id="it11">
><af:validateRegExp pattern="[a-z]+[A-Z]+[0-9]+[&]+" messageDetailNoMatch="Inproper text"/>
></af:inputText>
Hope this will helpful..
