Finding the length of the value

[pielz]

I'm getting the value of the password and putting in the input box but if they don't then it's supposed to come up blank which it isn't. It's some how find a space and brings up a * in the input box. So i was wondering how i would go about finding the length of the password so i could test it to be blank or to place the password in cause when they first sign up it has to be at least 4 characters long. This is what i'm working around. If ya can help me out thanks i greatly appreciate it!

<input type=&quot;password&quot; name=&quot;Password&quot; id=&quot;Password&quot; size=&quot;25&quot;>
<xsl:attribute name=&quot;value&quot;>
<xsl:value-of select=&quot;Password&quot;/>
</xsl:attribute>
</input>

Sorry, the less than symbol is being converted from the entity reference. You need to encode the less than sign as & followed by little letters &quot;l&quot; &quot;t&quot; semi-colon.
