Limit the list with max 5 digits per number in the list

Question

I am using a regex for allowing only valid numeric list i.e. 123, 456, 12, 123456789, 12

And this regex is working fine for this. Now I just want that max one can input 5 digit number in the list like

12,34,12345,12 - correct

12,123,123456,1234 - incorrect because this list contains a number more than 5 digits.

^[0-9]+(,[0-9]+)*$

Right now I am using this upper regex. Can anyone modify this regex so it will give solution to my question? ( Only regex for javascript please)

`[0-9]{6,}` with that you can match 6 or more digits – Sysix Oct 14 '20 at 17:37 — Sysix, Oct 14 '20 at 17:37

Instead of using + which means "one or more characters", use curly braces to specify a specific number of characters:

^[0-9]{1,5}(,[0-9]{1,5})*$

\d for Numbers， shorter regex

^\d{1,5}$

Yeah this is also right, but some browser engines didn't recognise \d. So better to put number like [0-9] – Shikhil Bhalla Oct 14 '20 at 17:46
