RE: validator with password fields
You're probably doing something wrong - it works fine for me.

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? brian - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: validator with password fields
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?

Re: validator with password fields
yep, that's it. I see that the required field is the only one that works. Can you tell me why this is? - Original Message - From: David Graham [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 4:02 PM Subject: Re: validator with password fields Javascript for password fields is intentionally limited for security reasons.

RE: validator with password fields
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. -Tim -Original Message- From: Brian McSweeney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 11:32 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: validator with password fields yep, that's it.
