Description

succeeds for '0.25' but fails for '.25'

I suggest modifying the regexp as such:

/^-?(\\d*|\\d{1,3}(?:,\\d{3})+)(?:\\.\\d+)?$/.test(value);

seems to work for me.

We're having the same issue. A slightly less intrusive fix for the regex would be to just replace the first one or more repeat matcher with the zero or more one:

original: /^-?(?:\\d+|\\d{1,3}(?:,\\d{3})+)(?:\\.\\d+)?$/

modified: /^-?(?:\\d*|\\d{1,3}(?:,\\d{3})+)(?:\\.\\d+)?$/
