Maybe the MXML compiler is trying to interpret the {6, 8} as a binding
expression similar to {newPassword}. Try setting the 'expression'
property in an initialize handler instead.- Gordon ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of DJ Lift Sent: Friday, November 17, 2006 9:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] RegExp Validator Hey there, I'm trying to use a standard regular expression in a RegExpValidator. Here's the validator markup: <mx:RegExpValidator id="newPasswordValidator" expression="[a-zA-Z0-9]{6,8}" source="{newPassword}" property="text" requiredFieldError="This fields is required." noMatchError="Passwords must be 6 to 8 characters in length and include letters and numbers"/> It keeps saying that a password like '64months' (without the apostrophes) is no good when it should be. The expression should validate such that any characters from a-z and A-Z and 0-9 should be ok, as long as the total length of chars is between 6 - 8 chars long. This expresion works great in PHP. I must be missing something about how AS or Flex deals with it. Any help would be appreciated. thanksie, marky
