validate

validates values against a predefined set of regexps.

usage

try {
  validate('some value', 3.5, 'int');
} catch(e) {
  // e.type, e.val, e.key
}

// or an array of values
validate([1, 2, 3], 'int_array');

Note that validate always escapes html & collapses whitespaces before testing anything.

Actual tested value will be returned upon a successful validation.
