I'm looking for regex which checks for at least 6 characters, regardless of which type of character.
If I understand correctly, you need a regex statement that checks for at least 6 characters (letters & numbers)?
/[0-9a-zA-Z]{6,}/
Something along the lines of this?
<asp:TextBox id="txtUsername" runat="server" /> <asp:RegularExpressionValidator id="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Field not valid!" ControlToValidate="txtUsername" ValidationExpression="[0-9a-zA-Z]{6,}" />
This match 6 or more any chars but newline:
/^.{6,}$/
