try this. [6-9][0-9]* – Dinesh Suthar Sep 21 '17 at 06:15

you can check the number is valid or not like here : `(([1-5]\d|[6-9]))$` [see the test results here](https://regex101.com/r/vX3dU0/7) – Rahul Hendawe Sep 21 '17 at 06:19

Instead of regex you can use <input type='number'... Check snippet below
<input type="number" name="quantity" min="6" />

@AarthnaMaheshwari it automatically validate the value on `submit or blur` event. You can check. – Super User Sep 21 '17 at 06:42

@DucFilan This kind of specification will be supported by the most browsers, including the old ones. – SacrumDeus Sep 21 '17 at 06:47

If you would like to watch the global stats of browser usage, you will see, that the IE<10 will be used by a very small percentage of all Browser users. This is a unimportant share. Here is the statistics: [W3Counter](https://www.w3counter.com/globalstats.php) – SacrumDeus Sep 21 '17 at 09:54
