Validating The Sum Of Two Inputs
Aug 31, 2009I am trying to write a js that validates a form with two text inputs. The two inputs are: 'D_techA' and 'D_techB'. I just want to add up (sum) the two input fields (which must be positive numbers) and make sure that they add up to exactly 100 (not more and not less). If they do not add up to 100, then an alert should pop up that says "The two values must add up to exactly 100." I have tried and tried to write a js that does this validation (looking at numerous validation scripts posted in this forum and elsewhere) and I just cannot seem to make it work.

Change Option Tag Values With Prompt Window Inputs?
Oct 27, 2011I am working on an interest and investment calculator for a class project. On my list of drop down options, one of the options isnt an integer value like the rest. It's value is "other", while the other three are 1000, 5000, 1000, and 25000. What I would like to do is when the user chooses the "other amount" option from the drop down list, a prompt window will come up asking the user for an investment amount. I am having problems creating a function in my javascript file for this, and then taking the value entered and assigning a variable in another function with that new value so that it calculates with the users input. Please help. The first part of the attachment is the label with the "other" value I explained. And the second piece of code is my mess of a function that I tried to create for the prompt window to come up and store the users value and then change the value of the option.
This is in my HTML:
<label for="investment">One-Time Investment:</label>
<select name="investment" id="investment"
<optgroup label="">
<option value="1000">$1,000</option>

Prompt Dialogue Boxes And Validating Data?
Jan 30, 2011I have two prompt dialogue boxes that ask the user the enter their name and their employee number.I am experiencing two errors. The first is, if a user enters their name incorrectly, using numbers for example, there is an error message that asks the user to re-enter their name using a string. If the user ignores the error message and enters a number a second time, the program accepts the entry, which it shouldn't.
The second error has to do with the employee number prompt. The prompt asks the user to enter an employee number that is equal to 6 digits, the program however accepts any number, less than or greater than 6 digits, which it shouldn't.I don't want the user to get away with entering anything incorrectly.
<script type="text/javascript">
// prompt the employer the enter the employee name and number
var employName = prompt ("Please enter the employees' name" , " ");[code].....
Validating Uniqueness Of Form Inputs
Jul 20, 2005I have a form with a few text boxes which need to be validated client-side.
The validation is: check that every single text box has a unique string value.
I.e., I need to check that there are no two textboxes that both contain,
for example, the string 'hello'.
Is there an efficient way to do this kind of validation in javascript?
JQuery :: Validation Question: Validating Multiple Email Inputs?
Feb 13, 2009I am using the Validation plugin to validate a form that emails the current pages URL to the recipients entered in to the "email to" field. I want to validate that field for multiple emails addressed separated by commas...and ideas on how to do this? I'm a bit new to jQuery so I am a little confused how to approach this. I was thinking somehow altering the email function so that is parses the input and does a for each on every email address. Is this correct thinking? Is there an easier way to do this?

How To Center A Prompt Box??
Jul 23, 2005I am trying to make a prompt that will ask the user for some input...
If I just use var input = prompt("dafa") everything works fine but the
box is put in the top left corner of the window. I need it to be
centered so... I was doing some research on the net (never really used
much JavaScript before) and was reading the only way to do this is by
making your own custom prompt. In my attempts of doing so I came up
with this code below. The problem I am having now is that when
onMaxLoad_Click() occurs the prompt appears for a split second and then
it goes back to being hidden. Code:

put it in the center?
Prompt To Submit
Jul 20, 2005I have a form that the user can edit data in. However, there are a couple
of links on the page. The user can edit the data and click on a link, not
submitting the form.
Is there some code out there that will check to see if they changed the
form, and prompt them to submit it if they try to exit the page any other
way?
Perfect example:
Returning Value From Prompt() ?
Jul 20, 2005here's what we have in an html file.
<form .....
<input type=button name="comment" onclick=" prompt('enter comment','
' )" >
Is there anyway to get the value returned from the prompt in the statement
above, into the value of the statement below ?
<input type=hidden name="comment_text" value = ???? >
We would like the user to click the "comment" button, have another window
popup where they enter their comment, and then take the comment text and
append it to the value parameter of the hidden statement.
Run JS In IE And NOT Get The Security Prompt?
Oct 14, 2009I'm working on an html form that will be launched from within another application, but every time it launches the form none of the JS coding works because of the stupid IE security. If I launch the form from outside the application I just have to select "allow blocked content" from that stupid information bar that says "to help protect your security IE has restricted the webpage from running scripts...."
I added the application site to our trusted sites and basically turned off security for that zone but it still doesn't work. Obviously there is a way to run JS without allowing the content, but I don't do enough coding to know how that is done.I need the JS to run automatically without that information bar appearing at all.

Prompt As A Variable To An Array?
Jun 19, 2011I want a prompt box appear and tell the user to input a word,and have that word saved as a variable named word (for example), later I wish to run the variable through a Regex, and run an if statement in which i use the search method for the regex, if the variable is not -1 then i want to alert a specific part of an array. I probably got you going in circles, its hard to explain but basically i want to alert an array named whatever the user inputs, as long as i have the users input already made: for example: the user inputs a word and saves it as a variable named word, then i want to call an array that is the same as the users input.
example:
if he inputs hello,
i want to call for example the array hello[2]
if he inputs internet
i want to call the array internet[1]
