Problem Description: When using isValid, with regex, to validate a string, the result returned is incorrect (and differs from what is returned by refind(), which works as expected).
Steps to Reproduce:
<cfscript>
regex = '^[\w_]+[\w_ ]*[\w_]+$';
validString = 'test test';
invalidString = 'test ';
//should fail
writeoutput('Expected output is "NO", but result is ' & isValid( 'regex', invalidString, regex ) & '<br />');
//should pass
writeoutput('Works as expected: ' & isValid( 'regex', validString, regex ) & '<br />');
//refind, for reference:
//works as expected (shouldn't be found)
writedump(refind(regex,invalidString));
//works as expected (should be found)
writedump(refind(regex,validString));
</cfscript>

Actual Result: NO
Expected Result: TRUE
Any Workarounds: Use some other regex search within CF
