first reply... GNI!

request for future: can this hack be modified to be using AJAX for the verif, instead of javascript plain ?!

thanks for this... greatly appreciate!

o0o Very nice!

@nexialys
Nope. That would mean having to transfer plaintext Passwords which is a no-no.

cool, we'll definately need this when we get to 3.5
THANKS for doing this

so in preventing the use of screename as password, which, if any, of these does it prevent?

b.u.l.b.a.s.n.o.r.e.

Also, are there rules for the word list or is the list just matched verbatim (or perhaps case insensitive)?

All we need do with the list is just add a table with the words, yes?

I haven't qutie looked at this in great detail, but adding "dictionary" words... is there a way to mass add them or is it just one at a time?

Andreas · #8 09-19-2005, 11:51 AM

Currently there is no way to add any at all

@bulbasnore
None, as they are all different from your Username

Dan · #9 09-19-2005, 12:36 PM

Awe...

I was looking forward to being bored and adding to it
