RegEx for Date

Hi everybody,
I need a RegEx-Code for the german form of date in the formfield "Geburtsdatum".
The desired format is (for instance) 19.10.1964

I used a the following RegEx:
/^([0]?[1-9]|[1|2][0-9]|[3][0|1])[./-]([0]?[1-9]|[1][0-2])[.]([0-9]{4}|[0-9]{2})$/

But when the form should be submitted, the following Error is shown:
• Error validating RegEx magic field: Unknown modifier '-'

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with "RegEx", so that I don't know where the error is.

Any Help very appreciated. Thanks a lot.

The working RegEx for german date is:
/^([0]?[1-9]|[1|2][0-9]|[3][0|1])[.]([0]?[1-9]|[1][0-2])[.]([0-9]{4}|[0-9]{2})$/

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
