append 4 backslashed (\\\\). That works for me when I want '\w' instead of 'w'. So you start off with \\\\w then you wind up with \\w and finally \w.

Hello, I tried to implement a conditional mask in javascript. The source file (htmL) of the browser escaped all the dashes in my mask string correctly. What happens is the escaped dashes in my mask string all disappear when they come to the javascript function in validator-rules.xml. For example, I use '\w' to stand for all the word chars in my mask string in validation.xml, in the html, it is '\\w', but it is 'w' in the javascript function in validator-rules.xml. I am using the 1.1-beta3. Thank you for any help. ginger --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
