`\|` and `+` inside a character class aren't special, they're just regular characters, so your regex would match "FO O\|B+++A R". `/[A-Z ]+/` (which is what I think you probably meant) won't work either. Bonus points will be given if you tell us why! Update: BrowserUK has already seen what was missing. You missed out AnonyMonk	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Note that the regex expression `[A-Z\\|\s+]` defines a set of characters that includes the '`\|`' ('pipe') character. Within a character set, the pipe has no special meaning; i.e., it is not the regex alternation metacharacter.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
