RegExp Format To Only Validate (###) ###-#### In Form?
Feb 13, 2009
I am working on a form that gets validated both on change and on submit (assignment). For the phone number, I want to validate so that the form will ONLY accept numbers entered in the following format: (###) ###-####
(ex. (555) 867-5309 ). I am new to JS, but am pretty sure this can be accomplished via using and comparing a regExp? If so, what is the code for that?
The closest one I can find is the following:
^(()?(787|939)()|-)?([0-9]{3})(-)?([0-9]{4}|[0-9]{4})$
Obviously, I do not only want to limit it to 787 or 939, so I need to remove that). Although, this accepts a variety of options that I do not want, like no parenthesis, only two numbers for area code, or no dashes, etc. I sort of understand how this works, but am unsure how to make the elements in the format REQUIRED as opposed to optional
I'm finally diving into regexp by porting a perl script over to js that uses regexp to compress javascript into a bookmarklet capable format.I've successfully worked out 90% of the expressions but am troubled with a few, this one at the moment is odd:I want to remove the first line if it hasjavascript:So I thought str.replace(/^javascripts+:s+/, "") would be ok. I want javascript text, any space, colon, any space and new line. what I'm doing wrong.btw this is the original perl version
The above code was copied from a Youtube tutorial about JavaScript.
I would like to ask, what additional code should be added in the existing code in order to validate the numbers only and an email format before the form to be submitted?
I want to check the email address type in a contact form but want to reject it if it's from a certain domain I actually use this regexp : /^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+@([a-zA-Z0-9-]+.)+[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4}$/ (taken from the jquery validationengine) to check if the email address is correctly formated but I'd like to reject it if contains hotmail between the @ and the. I tried many things but couldn't get something that works.
Im new to jquery so bare over with me :) I have a form, and when the user clicks the submit button, I want jquery to first validate a date field for its format. The format has to be like this: dd-mm-yyyy. So a date of 30-30-3000 would also be valid.
I wish to ammend it so that the time or h:m:s part is validated only if supplied (i.e. I wish to make the time part optional). At present if a time is not supplied the validation fails. I gather that the following part of the above expression
(20|21|22|23|[0-1]?d):[0-5]?d:[0-5]?d$
validates the time, however I don't know the syntax to make it optional.
I found this in felgall's page. I added script tag
<script type="text/javascript">
var re = /(t)he/g; var mystring = "Over the moon."; re.text(mystring); alert(RegExp.input); // or RegExp.$_ alert(RegExp.leftContext); // or RegExp["$`"] alert(RegExp.rightContext); // or RegExp["$'"] alert(RegExp.lastMatch); // or RegExp["$&"] alert(RegExp.lastParen); // or RegExp["$+"] alert(re.source);
</script>
I don't see message box. Please tell me what I can do.
I have a validation regular expression: [?&-#$%():;,._ 0-9a-zA-Z] in a hundreds of pages in edit boxes. Is there anyway I can on-the-fly add two items to this list: (after a page loads)
1) A single quote : ' 2) A double quote : "
Sort of like a search and replace for the ENTIRE form (html document).
Iam using JQuery DatePicker Plugin , created by Kelvin Luck [url]. Plugins default format is d/m/Y. how to change its default format to US Date format (m/d/Y).
I am making a contact us form, when the user will submit the form it will send the entered information via email to a already specified E-mail address ( using mailto: option), Now everything is working fine, But I can not figure out how format the enterd information into a nicely formatted E-mail. I know that can be done using PHP, but it suppose to be made from javascript (Client requirement).
I want a javascript code to download the webform/brochure in pdf format. While i click on a link/button the form should be saved in pdf format with whatever the state it is while a button click event was triggered. I am a newbie and have been trying a lot to address this requirement but not able to come up with a right code. :confused:
I've placed a 'Quick availability checker' form on my clients' website which links to an external online booking service. It all works fine, the only thing is that it requires the query to be in this date format: mm/dd/yyyy whereas us Brits prefer it to be dd/mm/yyyy.
Is there any way to change the form so that it will accept this date format and still send the right query to the online booking server? I believe there is a javascript for this but can't find it and have no javascript coding ability myself.
I am NOT a coder; I have managed to attain a decent comfort level with (X)HTML and CSS over the course of the last few years, and I recently bought PHP and JavaScript books with the intention of learning both of those. But at the moment, my skills are akin to a child who is still learning the alphabet. Second, a little background: I am currently in the midst of designing forms to be used on a newspaper website. At the moment, the newspaper uses paper forms that people fill out for announcements such as weddings, engagements, births, child birthdays, etc. But due to an ever-shrinking budget, they'd like to find a way for people to enter the information online and have it arrive at the newspaper in a format that is as close to "ready to print" as possible.
My first experiment was the child's birthday form: [URL] PHPMailer-FE, I was able to set up a PHP template that emails the form info in paragraph form, so that it arrives in my inbox as "Peter Smith celebrated his seventh birthday December 31" rather than "Name: Peter Smith. Celebrate: Celebrated. Gender: His. Birthday: Seventh. Date: December 31." Okay, here's where the JavaScript comes in: I would love to have a "preview" button so that people submitting the form can double-check to make certain that the announcement will read correctly (especially to be sure that they haven't missed any he/she or his/her choices). Which means that I'd like to have, say, a pop-up window that shows the announcement as it will run: "Peter Smith celebrated his seventh birthday December 31." Once people have previewed the announcement, they can then send it to us at the newspaper. Is there a way to accomplish this in JavaScript that can be done by someone who has almost no working knowledge of JavaScript?
i just leanerd the existence of the ajaxSubmit jQuery plugin,im wondering if there is a way to use the JSON both to send and retrieve the requests .I mean, no the plugin have the option 'dataType',that is used to specify the format that the server will send back, but i need to send the form as jquery to the server.For example, if my form looks like:
i am looking for a way to click on a button next to a time field that will paste the current date and time into that filed in this format: 01:00:00 08-08-2007 is that possible?
I have a form built and on the onclick event I validate all of the fields and then if the form is ok, on the submit event I run a javascript function to set a cookie and download a file from the current window.
I have a cgi script provided by my web host to send the contents of the form through email but they only show me how to use the cgi script to send email through the submit event of the form.
What is happening is when I try to submit the form, I receive an error that says I need to input all data in the proper format. <html><head> <title>Conference Registration Form</title> <link href="conf.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <script type = "text/javascript">
Calculate total registration fee Retrieve the value of the selected index property from guests selection lists Multiply the selected index by 30 and add this to the cost variable If the first member radio button is checked subtract 25 from the value of the cost variable Set the value of the total field equal to the value of the cost variable
I am currently trying to validate a form before sending it with the jQuery Form Plugin.I can get them working but it is always one or the other, I can't get them both working.
Im trying to validate a form using javascript. If there are errors in the form javascript lists them in a div tag on the top of the page. the problem is that whenever i click the submit for the first time everything is working but after i get the errors if im clicking submit again, it's submitting the form regardless of the errors...
I am wanting to validate a form and I cant seem to get one validation to work. The first two work, but the thrid I want to have a max length of 30 and I cant ssem to figure out how to do that.
var msg = ""; if(document.jobOpening.jobCity.value == ""){ msg = msg + "Please provide a Job City before submitting the form."; alert(msg); document.jobOpening.jobCity.focus(); return false; } if(document.jobOpening.jobCounty.value == ""){ msg = msg + "Please provide a Job County before submitting the form."; alert(msg); document.jobOpening.jobCounty.focus(); return false; } if(document.jobOpening.jobName.value =="", "maxlen=30"){ msg = msg + "Please provide a Job Name Less than 30 Char. before submitting the form."; alert(msg); document.jobOpening.jobName.focus(); return false; }
I looked at some of the other post on validation but I still can't figure out what I'm doing wrong to get the JavaScript to validate my form. Maybe some fresh new eyes.
Here is the JavaScript:
<!-- var validations = new Array(); // Define which validations to perform. Each array item // holds the form field to validate, and the validation
[Code]....
I just tried to validate the first name, last name and address for now until I get it to work.
I have a school project that requires form validation. I have created the form, with all the fields and all that...can you help me script the "form validation" part? I have included comment tags on what to validate.
