Hi,
You can do:
if ($name =~ /^[a-z]+$/) {
...
}
and
if ($password =~ /^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]+$/) {
...
}
There are perl modules that automaticly create forms with the fields you
specify, that can create validating rules for usernames, emails, passwords, and
those validators are done both server side and client side with a javascript
code which is created automaticly with no need to know Javascript.
Search for "FormBuilder" and "form" with
search.cpan.org if you need that.
