Hello,

this is a very nice plugin.

I made some additions to the options of the plugin to be able to
specify ALL the strings of the display as 3 of them were hard coded in
version 1.2.

I have also modified a few things in the plugin to make other strength
test:
1- if a passwords contains one of the common word (for example
test=89, 12345bs, etc...) it gets a bad score
2- replaced the regexp for special characters with \W, as this will
match more of the possible special characters in passwords...
3- added a regexp to test if the password doesn't contain chains of
more than 3 identical alphanumeric: aaa, bbb, 1111, etc... (remove 10
points)
4- test that we don't have the more than 3 consecutive letters (this
avoids putting a full dictionary of common words) (remove 5 points)
5- test that we have approximatively the same numbers of letter,
numerics and special characters in the password. (add 7 points)

I tagged it version 1.3, but then... It's here:
http://6v8.gamboni.org/jquery.pstrength.1.3.js

if you put it back on your site, I'll remove it from my site....

Pierre
