Password Validation #5

Closed mwhite192 closed 1 year ago

mwhite192 commented 1 year ago

@AccessiT3ch - Hey again Conor!

As we know, I have quite a few form validation statements on the register and login page. I have created validation for all field except password. My question is, is there a statement I can write with the other validation statements that can validate the password without creating a confirm password field? Or should I perform that validation on the backend?

@mwhite192 password validation should be pretty straightforward, in this case you basically just need to make sure the input isnt empty, which we can do by setting require="true" on the input element. Actually checking the password will happen on the server by checking the hash thats saved in the db.

@AccessiT3ch - that’s good to know! I had a check to see if password was empty but I commented it out I think. Illl go back and add it. I can check that off the list.
