Hi

I am getting several users (who are competent) reporting issues when
they save their password , and when they next go to login it doesnt
allow them too, although the old one doesnt work either. I think it
might be browser quirk or UTF charset issue or something? Looking for
any ideas really!

I validate on password with regex /^[\S]{6,30}$/

And it seems to work fine with my test ones when I change it - so it
is only occasional.
But I have had a few users report when they change it they cannot then
login again with either new one or old one
- theres a confirm box too so it does get them to put it in twice if
you see what i mean.
Also if it is too short it obviously say s no and doesnt let them put
it in.

After checking my mysql table for users, it is latin , whereas my app
in core.php is UTF-8 . Most of my other tables are UTF-8 glancing at
them, so I can only assume I mistakenly saved it as latin when I first
wrote the code.

Otherwise, I don't know if it something with the salt, like it doesnt
get salted correctly sometimes, or maybe my db field is wrong type? -
char(40) - if the password gets truncated possibly somehow?

any help is appreciated as it's quite hard to test this one,

cheers

Cakey.
