regular-language

In my regex, I want to say that within the sample text, any characters are allowed, including a-z in upper and lower case, numbers and special characters.

For example, my regular expression may be checking that a document is html. therefore:

"/[]+/"

i have tried []+ but it does not seem to like this?
