It might be a good idea to move the length check to the beginning and the rest after that, like so:
(?=^.{8,15}$)(?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z]).*
Title: This expression is NOT broken

This isn't broken. It *CAN* validate for at least one upper- and one lower-case letter and one digit. However, the default settings for testing expressions on this site include "Case insensitive". With a case-insensitive match settings, it obviously *will* match "ABSCDEFG1".
When testing this, switch OFF the case-insensitive checkbox. And if you want it to work in IE, you need to tweak things like this:
^(?=.{8,15}$)(?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z]).*

Works for ABCDEFG9 which fails description as at least one lower case is required
Title: possible alternative

I believe this might be a possible alternative:
(?=^.{7,12}$)(?=.*\d)(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[a-z]).*
Since it appears that IE doesn't do the lookaheads properly, I just put the length requirement as the lookahead itself. Notice the ^ and the $ are inside the lookahead that checks the length, otherwise that lookahead would pass on anything greater than or equal to 7 characters.
The only other change I make when using this regex myself, is that I prefer to replace the final dot with a character class that has only the characters I prefer to allow:
(?=^.{7,12}$)(?=.*\d)(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[a-z])[!-~]*
or
(?=^.{7,12}$)(?=.*\d)(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[a-z])[^\s]*

Title: problem with lower and upper caps.

Supposedly 12aaaa12 does not match, but it does.
this expression does NOT enforce lower AND upper caps. It enforces alphanumeric and numeric only

I think I've tracked down the Javascript problem.

The modified expression is NOT equivalent to the original. In fact the modified version matches everything (except a newline). Try it with 8 of the same character. The movement of the astericks makes all the look-aheads superfluous.
Also, there is actually no reason the original shouldn't work in javascript. It is syntaxally sound. There appears to be a bug with the client side engines. I'm getting ood results when testing it.

This works great for .NET but not when you try to use .NET RegExp Validators which use client-side JavaScript. I made a small change to work in JavaScript (note the movement of the asterisks):
^(?=.\d*)(?=.[a-z]*)(?=.[A-Z]*).{8,15}$

When I run this with "test expression" on this site, it works great, but when I try to use it in the built-in reg expression validator on the asp page, it evaluates the expression as requiring 6 numbers, 6 letters. I copied and pasted, so I know the syntax is ok..any thoughts?
