Password validation with regular expression

439999Jul 1 2005 — edited Jul 7 2007
I'm trying to use a regular expression to validate a password. I've tried a number of different regex's that seem to work elsewhere but do not work in HTML DB. This includes a couple that I wrote and that I found on regex web sites. Specifically, I'm trying to validate that a string has:

1. at least one special character
2. at least one numeric character
3. no more than 6 consecutive characters
4. has a length between 8 and 14

Does anyone know why some regular expressions do not work in HTML DB that work elsewhere or has anyone done a regex similar to this in HTML DB.

Thanks!
