Re: Reasonable RegExps

Is There a better way?

These regexes should fit your criteria

my $fullname = qr/\A[a-z]{1,30}\z/i;
my $username = qr/\A[a-z]\w{2,16}\z/i;
my $password = qr/\A.{6,30}\z/;

Check out perlre for more info on the above regexes.

I think id be inclined to not use `/[a-z]/i`, I personally think the below is easier to read. `my $fullname = qr/\A[[:alpha:]]{1,30}\z/; my $username = qr/\A[[:alpha:]]\w{2,16}\z/;` [download] TIMTOWTDI --- demerphq _{<Elian> And I do take a kind of perverse pleasure in having an OO assembly language...}	[reply] [d/l] [select]
