Hello List, Validation works great! However, we don't want to allow people to enter
<form><input type=text value=trytohackaround><input type=submit></form> Style data into our forms. I'm happy to just make < > illegal characters using a regex mask, but the SAX parser won't parse my validation.xml file. Does anyone know how to escape < > characters in the validation.xml file or otherwise suggest a workaround to stop people from entering html style chars in our forms. <field roperty="user.firstName" depends="required,maxlength,mask"> <msg name="mask" key="registration.maskmsg"/> <arg0 key="registration.user.firstName"/> <arg1 key="${var:maxlength}" name="maxlength" resource="false"/> <var> <var-name>maxlength</var-name> <var-value>100</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>mask</var-name> (I've tried all of the following) <var-value>^[^<>]*</var-value> <var-value>^[^<>]*</var-value> <var-value>^[^\<\>]*</var-value> etc... </var> </field> Thx - Eric --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
