Code JavaScript:
if(document.getElementById('RegisForm_Username').value == /[^a-zA-Z 0-9]/g)
{

your username must be alphanumeric (consisting of the letters A-Z or numbers 0-9) and cannot have any special characters.");return false;}

Date Sorting In European Style "yyyy/mm/dd"

Jan 31, 2011

I am trying to use JavaScript in conjuntion with html to display a table of sortable cities, states and dates. The dates are my problem. I am a novice and was given this code. But it seems to sort in European style, yyyy/mm/dd. I need it to sort mm/dd/yyy, which i am told is US style. I have placed a page here ([URL]) to let you see the code at work. This page has the code on it in text also. I do not mind posting the code hgere also if you prefer.

Validate Valid Date Form With Dropdown Boxes?

Jan 20, 2010

I'm working on a website where users can add films to a film directory through a form. One of the fields that can be filled in is a "Release date" field, where a correct release date can be filled in. The form uses dropdown boxes for selecting the date; this is much less confusing in terms of how to format the date than if one would just use a text input field. Here's a screen shot:[URL]..

I've been looking for a Javascript script that does three things:

1) Validate the entered date (i.e. no "31st of February" dates).

2) Check whether the date entered doesn't exceed today's date (so no release date in the future is allowed). This could be combined with PHP to find the today date.

3) If the "I don't know the release date" box is checked, simply skip the whole validation process (no need to validate something that won't be used).

I've been looking for Javascript code that does this, and I found a couple of scripts (like this one) [URL].. /date_validation.asp), but they all make use of text input fields where the user has to input it in a certain format (mm/dd/yyyy et cetera). This is not what I'm looking for, but having zero knowledge of Javascript I am completely unable to write my own code or adapt this code to what I want.

I already figured out the PHP that does all of the above, but I would also very much like to have some code that checks the date before the data is processed so that users who have made a mistake don't have to fill in the whole form a second time.

Regular Expression To Test The Validity Of An Input Date?

Jan 6, 2011

I have the following regular expression to test the validity of an input date:

([0-9][0-9]|[0-9])[s/-]([0-9][0-9]|[0-9])[s/-]([0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]|[0-9][0-9])

It should allow 1 or two digits for the day of the month, then a separating character (" ", "/" or "-"), then 1 or two digits for the month, then 2 or 4 digits for the year.

Unfortunately it will accept anything above 2 digits for the year, which I understand why is happening but don't know how to fix!

InnerHTML - String Comparison Test Doesn't Work In Function?

Jan 23, 2011

why the string comparison test doesn't work in this javascript function? It works if you use just text between the currentItem div tags, but not when you use html for an image. I even tried to use iso characters instead of angle brackets, as in "<img src=expand.png></img>" and still no dice. Why not?

<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript">
function toggleValue()
{
if(document.getElementById("currentItem").innerHTML != "<img src=expand.png></img>")
{
[Code].....

Convert String To Date - Error: "Invalid Date"

Nov 19, 2010

I have pulled a date from our database in the form of mm/dd/yyyy, and would like to convert this to a Date object type. To do this, I have parsed the string to switch it to the following format yyyy,mm,dd. I have already created a new Date variable using the following: Date reqDate = new Date(2010,10,14) and had no issues. However, if I do the following: Date reqConvert = new Date (reqDate3) where reqdate3 = 2010,11,15
I get the following error: "Invalid Date".

Once Set A Private Variable, Test That Object Independently Becomes A Nightmare As The Next Test Is Polluted By The Actions Of The Previous?

Mar 14, 2009

I'm using the standard module pattern and the problem is once you set a private variable, trying to test that object independently becomes a nightmare as the next test is polluted by the actions of the previous.So, the options are to have some reset method (which is horrible), setters on everything (defeats the point) or delete object and re-load script (hideous).
