Password confirmation with forms ?

[MiggyMan]

How!

I'm using the forms functionality to define all of my forms in a
separate JavaScript file, how do i go about setting up password field
confirmation while doing this ?

what exactly is the problem? as long as you include both fields in
external js, you could call the setConfirmationField method to set
confirmation field.

It would be nice to have a password field option that would do that
for you automagically, ie:
{
"type": "password"
, "inputParams" : { "name" : "candidate.Password","label":
"prompt_Password"
, "required": true
** , "showConfirmPassword" :true
, "showMsg": true, "strengthIndicator": true , "capsLockWarning":
true }}

created a new Issue in the bug tracker:

The problem is that i can't access the individual fields to call
secConformationField on.

If you give it a "name" attribute, you can use the Group.getFieldByName method

ex:

var pass1 = myGrpInstance.getFieldByName("password");
var pass2 = myGrpInstance.getFieldByName("confirmation")
pass2.setConfirmationField(pass1);

It is not ideal anyway...
I added a ticket to the bug tracking system ;  you can "star" it to get informed when this is solved
