http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26199 [validator] Change regex in mask so ^ and $ not required at start/end ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-02-11 10:52 ------- I haven't used 1.4 regexp - but when this was being discussed on the mailing list David Graham mentioned that ORO worked different from 1.4 regexp in this respect - perhaps he would confirm this. I tried out the javascript and without the 'anchors' invalid data in the field passes validation. I found this site http://www.regular- expressions.info/anchors.html which says they are needed, otherwise it is doing a 'contains' rather than 'matches' type check. Having said all that, I think this is still a valid change. My change doesn't stop regular expressions with the ^ and $ characters from working - they still work fine, but if this change is implemented, then for server side the mask validations will also work if you don't put them in. Isn't this a win win situation?
