regularexpressi on validator on postback

Hi all,

i've a form with a textbox that user "must" fill with a password. I want
to check if there's a password inside, and if it's between 6 an 8 chars.

I've placed a regularexpressi on validator pointing this textbox and with
the following expression:

\w{6,8}

but when i post the form, no check validation on this control appear!!!
Infact, i've notice that this expression check the textbox only if
there's at least one char.

How can I do?

thanks.

Standar 9-digit postal code expression, copied and pasted from a web form validator expression: @"\d{5}(-\d{4})? I try to use it to validate a windows textbox, but it does not like the '?'. If the first part is matched,it doesnt care what comes afterwards. Removing the ? gives proper behavior.

The email reg exp that ships with the RegularExpressionValidator doesnt like this email address: user@blah.ru Or any other email domain that contains only 2 letters after the dot.

I have a regex "^\d{5}$" that does not allow blanks, but the RegularExpressionValidator does not fire for empty fields. Is there a way to make it do so? I would rather not include a separate RequiredValidator for reasons of brevity and neatness. Thanks, John
