Need a regular expression for Y, N or U

Need a regular expression for Y, N or U

I have tried ^[YNU]{1}*$ , which I think is correct, but it is not working.
Full line is: $WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateRX(((isset($_POST["CareIndependant"]))?$_POST["CareIndependant"]:"") . "","^[YNU]{1}*$",true,18);

Please help if you can.
Thanks,

Actually, I just realized none of the validations are working. See attachment in PM

It appears the validation should be working.

If you give me a url and ftp access I can test it myself and let you know why it isn't working properly.

Use this as the regular expression:

/^[YNU]{1}$/

The page validates now, but that line does not. It allowed a blank entry.

My bad Ray. It works fine.
Thanks again.
