Apparatus, system, and method for validating network communications data

摘要

An apparatus, system, and method for the improved validation of information across a communications network provide a common validation rules library that may be accessed and executed either by a client or server. The provision of a minimal amount of logic either to the client or the server is achieved by generating only a requisite amount of validation logic. Furthermore, developers are enabled to reuse and build upon validation logic by subsequent validation logic inheriting validation logic from a parent rule.

1. A method, comprising:
identifying browser capability; choosing a validation deployment, wherein choosing the validation deployment comprises:
determining if a browser of a client supports regular expressions, and if so, providing validation rules on the client to the client;if the browser does not support regular expressions, determining if the browser supports a non regular expression language, and if so, providing non regular expression language information validation to the client;if the browser does not support the non regular expression language, providing regex enabled validation on a server to the client; providing the browser with appropriate network location and validation rules; obtaining information from a user; and validating information with appropriate validation rules stored in a memory device.
