Thanks Jonathan. *Q1:* *>(Does Google really forbid upper case?)*
. I wouldn't say forbid, but if your name google user name is jonlun, or jon.lun you can sign in with JonLun, or JON.LUN - But. I notice* in web2py,* I can have users like JSMITH, jSmith, smith - and I can't think of a reason I would want that. *Q2:* *> Do you mean "User name must start with lower case or a period"?* . No, I want just like google, you can have periods, but NOT as first letter. (I have plans for first letter NOT being a period) * When you say: '[.a-z].*' is probably too permissive,* is that because someone could enter names like john..........smith ? . I will work on making the messages more clear. I will have a comment, on the form, users will see,so they don't have to wait for the error box to learn what is acceptable Thanks for very fast response, I'll keep testing it out... Rob --
