Double e-mail field check small and large characters

Postby krisvekaopc » Thu Mar 09, 2017 5:38 pm

Hi,

I have a double e-mail field but I have a question: the system checks if the e-mailadresses are the same. But the system also checks if a character is written in capital.

This are two different e-mailadresses:

ruPostel@rupostel.com
rupostel@rupostel.com

How can I change that?

Kris

Could an admin please move this topic to Virtuemart 3 with Joomla 3?

Thanks!

hello Kris, validation of email address is extremely complicated (see RFC) and this feature provides just a very basic functionality to this. it is very complicated to compare unicode strings in javascript if there is any capitalization since email address should also support special characters - such as used in chinese.

right now this would be way too complicated to get fixed and i believe it's not that much of a problem. if those 2 emails must be identical, i believe customer should make sure they are indentical.

best regards, stan
