So in my registration form I have this field:
<div class="form-group">
<label for="RegisterModel_Password">Password</label>
<input type="password" id="RegisterModel_Password"
name="RegisterModel.Password" class="form-control"
required="required" minlength="8"/>
</div>
As you see, I'm using jQuery validation attributes to ensure that the password includes at least 8 characters. So, I want to check if password contains uppercase and number, if not, field is not valid. I downloaded additional method for jQuery Validation plugin named "pattern" and added her in head tag.
I tried to do this as follows but it didn't worked.
$("#formRegister").validate({
rules: {
RegisterModel_Password: {
pattern: /^[a-zA-Z][0-9]/
}
}
});
I assume that the pattern is wrong, but I'm not sure whether the use is correct. Thank you for your help.
Chains of regular expressions are too hard for me ( I have never tried to learn them lol ). So here is my solution:
jQuery.validator.addMethod("passwordCheck",
function(value, element, param) {
if (this.optional(element)) {
return true;
} else if (!/[A-Z]/.test(value)) {
return false;
} else if (!/[a-z]/.test(value)) {
return false;
} else if (!/[0-9]/.test(value)) {
return false;
}
return true;
},
"error msg here");
And simply I use it like a attribute:
<input type="password" id="RegisterModel_Password"
name="RegisterModel.Password"
class="form-control"
required="required" minlength="8"
passwordCheck="passwordCheck"/>
Thanks for your answers.
You can add your custom validation using $.validator.addMethod() like:
$.validator.addMethod("validation_name", function(value) {
// at least 1 number and at least 1 character
[^\w\d]*(([0-9]+.*[A-Za-z]+.*)|[A-Za-z]+.*([0-9]+.*))
});
