Dirk Lattermann updated TAP5-883:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
In some situations, a value can pass client side regexp validation and fail the 
server side validation. This should not be the case.

The server regexp validator requires a value to match the regexp exactly from 
start to end which is not the case on the client (browser).

For example, given a regexp of [a-z]{2}, a value of hu4 passes validation on 
the client and fails on the server.

Workaround: use anchored regexps like ^[a-z]{2}$
