How to validate username and password in javascript from database

JavaScript : HTML Form validation - checking for password

Sometimes a password validation in a form is essential. You can create a password in different ways, it's structure may be simple, reasonable or strong. Here we validate various type of password structure through JavaScript codes and regular expression.

• Check a password between 7 to 16 characters which contain only characters, numeric digits and underscore and first character must be a letter.
• Check a password between 6 to 20 characters which contain at least one numeric digit, one uppercase and one lowercase letter.
• Check a password between 7 to 15 characters which contain at least one numeric digit and a special character.
• Check a password between 8 to 15 characters which contain at least one lowercase letter, one uppercase letter, one numeric digit, and one special character.

Following code blocks contain actual codes for the said validations. We have kept the CSS code part common for all the validations.

CSS Code:

li {list-style-type: none;
font-size: 16pt;
}
.mail {
margin: auto;
padding-top: 10px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
width: 400px;
background : #D8F1F8;
border: 1px soild silver;
}
.mail h2 {
margin-left: 38px;
}
input {
font-size: 20pt;
}
input:focus, textarea:focus{
background-color: lightyellow;
}
input submit {
font-size: 12pt;
}
.rq {
color: #FF0000;
font-size: 10pt;
}

To check a password between 7 to 16 characters which contain only characters, numeric digits, underscore and first character must be a letter

To validate the said format we use the regular expression ^[A-Za-z]\w{7,15}$, where \w matches any word character (alphanumeric) including the underscore (equivalent to [A-Za-z0-9_]).  Next the match() method of string object is used to match the said regular expression against the input value. Here is the complete web document.

To check a password between 6 to 20 characters which contain at least one numeric digit, one uppercase and one lowercase letter

To validate the said format we use the regular expression ^(?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z]).{4,8}$.  Next the match() method of string object is used to match the said regular expression against the input value. Here is the complete web document.

To validate the said format we use the regular expression ^^(?=.*[0-9])(?=.*[[email protected]#$%^&*])[[email protected]#$%^&*]{7,15}$.  Next the match() method of string object is used to match the said regular expression against the input value. Here is the complete web document.
