You're probably doing something wrong - it works fine for me.

Subject: validator with password fields


Hi all,

when trying to make a password field required using the validator, the
javascript doesn't seem to work. 
The server side validation does work. Strangely, the javascript
validation works in the same form for text fields.

Anyone ever encountered this before?

Am I just doing something wrong?

Javascript for password fields is intentionally limited for security 
reasons.  The only javascript validation that runs on password fields is the 
required check.  What version are you using?

yep, that's it. I see that the required field is the only one that works.
Can you tell me why this is?

javascript is clientside. Therefore, any password you validate in javascript
can easily be seen by a person using view source.
Having:

function validatePassword()
{
return password == 'open sesame';
}

is not very good security.
