It's in ASP.NET C# programming language, I spend like 4 hours looking for solution, tried many ways but none of it works.
I have textbox which you can type in password and confirm password textbox.
I placed required field validator when user doesn't type anything to let him know he needs to type something, error pops up.
I want to have one more required field validator where it would be told to user that he needs to put 4 characters minimum in password field, if his password is less than 4 characters.
I tried every single possible way that I could come up with and stumble upon, nothing seems to be working!
You can also try DataAnnotations. apply the following lines of code to the Password property of the appropriate Class:
[Required][StringLength(MaxLength = arbitraryMaxLength, MinimumLength = 4)]
Have you tried Custom validator ?
You can do that with a RegularExpressionValidator. Maybe this helps.

So I am trying to make a password validator in Scratch where it asks the user to input an answer and then it puts the answer through some criterias and then outputs if it is a valid password or not. The criterias are:
Has at least 8 characters,
Has at least one uppercase letter,
Has at least one lowercase letter,
Has at least one number,
Has at least one special character,
Must contain less than 18 characters.
I tried to make a list first with all the different characters and check if the password contained them, but it doesn't actually work. I looked all over the internet for help on this but no one seems to have done it. The Scratch Wiki does have some stuff about case sensitivity but I haven't really been able to implement it. I really need help and I have been trying for a while now. Thanks.
If you just check if the password contains the list, it will only work if it has every single character of the list in order. If you want to make sure it contains each check, you're probably going to have to make a system that checks each letter for every check, which is a little complex.
Check if <lowercase letter/whatever check> contains(letter(text reading #) of (password))
If it passes this check, continue to the next check and set text reading # to 1. Otherwise, change text reading # by 1.
I assume you'll know how to code this properly, but I just partially phrased in the way a normal human would.
This will repeat until either it reaches the end of the password or it passes the check. it will then do this again, but for a different check. It's hard to explain in text, and this is my first answer, but I hope it helps.
You have to use the operators "contains", "length of" and > operators, from the end of the class. Combine "contains", "or" and "and".
I would like to determine the Thousand Separator used while running a VBA Code on a target machine without resolving to calling system built-in functions such as (Separator = Application.ThousandsSeparator).
I am using the following simple code using 'Format':
ThousandSeparator = Mid(Format(1000, "#,#"), 2, 1)
The above seems to work fine, and would like to confirm if this is a safe method of doing it without resorting to system calls.
I would expect the result to be a single char string in the form of , or . or ' or a Space as applicable to the locale on the machine.
Please note that I want to only use a language statement such as Format or similar (no sys calls). Also this relates to Thousands Separator not Decimal Separator. This article Using VBA to detect which decimal sign the computer is using does not help or answer my question. Thanks
Thanks in advance.
The strict answer to whether it is safe to use Format to get the thousands separator is No.
E.g. on Windows, it is possible to enter up to three characters into the Thousands Separator field in the regional settings in the control panel.
Suppose you enter asd and click OK.
If you now call Format(1000, "#,#") it will give you 1a000. That is only the first letter of your thousands separator. You have failed to retrieve it correctly.
Reading the registry:
? CreateObject("WScript.Shell").RegRead("HKCU\Control Panel\International\sThousand")
you get back asd in full.
To be fair, the Excel international properties do not seem to be of much help either. Application.International(xlThousandsSeparator) in this situation will return the separator originally defined in your computer's locale, not the value you've overridden it to.
Having that said, the practical answer is Yes, because it would appear (and if you happen to know for sure, please post an answer here) that there is no culture with multi-char thousand separator (even in China where scary things like 1億2345万6789 or 1億2345萬6789 exist, they happen to be represented with just one UTF-16 character), and you probably are happy to ignore the people who decided to play with their locale settings in that fashion.
can anyone give me some idea how to write a code to display warning when users enter a value greater than the actual value, but it still can enter values for other fields. I use VB.net and access database. I think it is able to use onchange but i still don't have any idea to write the code
here is example
Use the built-in validation scheme. Example here :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.data.binding.validatesondataerrors.aspx
We have a password rule that checks against user attributes. The problem is that sometimes the attribute may be a single character like 'a'. In this case any password that contains 'a' will be rejected. How is this usually handled? Length check against the attribute value?
Length check sounds great! Make sure the attribute is over 5 characters (3? 4? 6?) long and contained in the password before you reject it. It's your choice.
I have an input box and the user can write his DOB(mm/dd/yyyy) into the box.
Before I save the data I like to test for valid input. I am using Regexlite.h and Regexlite.m.I have the regular expression too. I want to compare the regex to the user entered value in text box.But am not knowing how to do it.
Any idea how to test for a valid date? (in .NET I use a simple regex but for the iPhone sdk I am a bit helpless) - but somebody must have been done this before.
Here is a regex you can use to parse it if your looking for something else just leave me a comment
^\d{2}/\d{2}/\d{4}$
I think that you should do more validation than that---you don't want anything happening on 30 February nor allow a birth-year of 1001 and 3001 (time-travellers and Methusaleh's Children can go hang).
Perhaps someone cleverer than I could do this all with regular expressions, but I'd suggest just looking at the string and using some logic.
Why are you not using UIDatePicker to prevent user to enter your own not valid date.
