Validation max/min characters per word / no limit in field

+1

Hi all,

I need a single line textbox field validation to validate

min/max characters per word are e.g. 4, but no validation limit on total number of words/characters.

E.g.:

ABCD is ok

ABC ABCD is not ok as one word with less than 4 charakters

ABCD ABCD is ok

ABCD ABCD ABCDE is not ok as one word with more than 4 charakters

Can anyone help me?

Thx a lot!

Use regular expression for validation, e.g.:

^(w{4,4} )*w{4,4}$

Thanks. This helps but leads to a problem somewhere else:

I'd also like to apply different/conditional validation rules based on the selection of a drop down field.

As far as I see, this is not possible with regular expression?

Any idea? I'd prefer not to use JavaScript.
