[RESOLVED] simple strlen problem I think

[rr1024]

Hello and thanks for reading my question.

I can not figure out why this keeps failing, when I type in the word test as the password I get the Echo TEST1 4 is 4 not larger than 3 or did I miss something in math class...laughing

        $PwdLength = (int)strlen( $NewPwdRaw );
        IF ( 3 < $PwdLength ) { //4 to 15
             ECHO "TEST1 ".$PwdLength;
             RETURN 302;

    }ELSEIF( 16 > $PwdLength ) {
         ECHO "TEST2".$PwdLength;
         RETURN 302;
    }

I started out with

        IF ( 4 <= $PwdLength AND 15 >= $PwdLength ) {
             RETURN 302;

    }

but it kept failing so I broke it up as above to see where and for the life of me I'm not seeing the problem.

Anyway if anyone can see what stupid mistake I'm making please feel free to point it out.

Not sure whether you intend 302 to indicate valid or invalid, but your original code (the single IF condition) should return 302 if $pwdLength is between 4 and 15. If your intent is to return 302 if it is NOT within that range, invert it to:

IF ( 4 > $PwdLength OR 15 < $PwdLength ) {
             RETURN 302;
}
