Hi
I'm using a regular expression validator, but if spaces are entered,
it bypasses the validation!
I'm using
^[0-9a-zA-Z]{5,100}$
[alpha-numeric characters between 5-100 in length.]
I was using a required filed validator beforehand, which wouldn't let
you get waay with spaces.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks

Field validators only fire when there is content in the field being
validated. To check that a field has data, and correct date, you need to
use two validators. The required field validator will ensure that data is
entered, and your second validator (eg. regular expression validator) will
ensure that the data entered is in the required format.
Hope this helps,
Mun

Hi all,
I am trying to use a regular expression validator to check
for the existence of PO Box in an address textbox. The
business rule is "No addresses with PO Boxes are allowed."
What I want to happen is the Regular Expression Validator
to return false only when the string contains PO Box.
Currently it is false even when a valid address exists.

I have a regular expression (^(.+)(?=\s*).*\1 ) that results in
matches. I would like to get what the actual regular expression is.
In other words, when I apply ^(.+)(?=\s*).*\1 to " HEART (CONDUCTION
DEFECT) 37.33/2 HEART (CONDUCTION DEFECT) WITH
CATHETER 37.34/2 " the expression is "HEART (CONDUCTION DEFECT)". How
do I gain access to the expression (not the matches) at runtime?
Thanks,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
