The following problem has happened several times recently and defies all analysis. We
have a Web
form for new employees to sign up for an email account. It goes through both
JavaScript and CF
validation. I have one user who, when she uses the form, is able to sail right past
all validation
on the password. The receiving template happily processes garbage input as if it is
normal! When I
test the form, validation always works. Since this is mainly a CF forum, I'll just
post part of the
CF validation here, and someone can explain to me why it did not catch passwords like
"kev" or
"cmj"?
<CFIF Len(form.Password) LT 6>
<B>Error! The submitted Password is too short!<BR>
<A HREF="javascript:history.back()">BACK</A></B>
<CFABORT>
</CFIF>
<CFIF ReFindNoCase("[0-9]*", "form.Password") IS "0">
<B>Error! The submitted Password must contain at least one number!<BR>
<A HREF="javascript:history.back()">BACK</A></B>
<CFABORT>
</CFIF>
