Miscellaneous Hacks - Password Strength Check

What is it?
----------------------------
This mod adds a check for password strength at registration and when a user changes their password. You can specify the minimum length and number of upper case, digits, and other characters you want to require (see screen grab 3), or you can choose a minimum score to allow (based on length and types of characters included, see screen grab 4).

Installation:
----------------------------
1) Upload the files in the upload directory to the appropriate locations.

2) In the Product Manager in AdminCP, import the product XML file (product-kh99_passwords.xml).

3) In the admincp, go to "[kh99] Password Policy Options" and select the options you want.

Uninstalling:
----------------------------
1) Uninstall the product from the Product Manager in the AdminCP.

2) Remove the uploaded files.

Notes:
----------------------------
1) Tested on vb3.8.8. I also test a bit on vb3.8.2 (mostly for php version compatibility) and it seems to work.

History:
----------------------------
0.9.0 (October 14, 2013) - Initial Release

Hello,

Thank you very much for your nice add-on,

But I have a question if you mind... I noticed that this plugin inserts needed scripts in headinclude which are not really needed in all pages of the forum but register page.

Is there any way to modify this add-on that make it to load the JS files at the Registeration page only ? (manually -or- automatically)

and I have a suggestion regarding HTML validation ,

I noticed that you inserted the "<script>" lines like this :

<script src="{$stylevar['yuipath']}/element/element-min.js" ></script>

which are not valid based on XHTML checks, it would be great if you edit theem and add "type Attribute" to them :

<script "text/javascript" src="{$stylevar['yuipath']}/element/element-min.js" ></script>

Again thank you for supporting vB3.x

I'm actually working on it right now, but the vb4 registration process is a little different so it's taking some time to work out the bugs.

Oops, another one of the things I never finished. I actually thought about that when I saw this mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=316017 and I thought maybe I should get it done, but I kind of hated to release it right after someone else wrote one.

Maybe I'll look at it this weekend.

I forgot about this one as well... going to install it on my other 3.8 site now, Thank you.

Its not showing up on /profile.php?do=editpassword
What do I need to add to the template?

ReCaptcha is no longer showing up on registration now that this is added.
