JQuery :: Validate : Require A Blank Text Field?

Oct 26, 2010

I'm trying to set up a form that has a text field that is required to be blank - I'm dealing with form spam, and the bots are stuffing every text field with random crap. So, I have a text box that is required to be blank. But I can't get jquery.validate to understand both required and blank.the text input is has a name and id of live_check.I have added this method:

$.validator.addMethod("equalToParam", function(value, element, param) {return value == param;});

and then my rules look like this:

rules: {
first_name: "required",
last_name: "required",[code]...

But validate flags the empty text box as invalid (because it's required?)

Do Not Allow Certain Characters In Text Box?

Oct 4, 2010

I have this code that only allows a period and numbers to be put in the text box. The problem is that the message also appears if the text box is left blank. I don't want the error to appear if the text box is left blank. Right now I have it on a Blur so that the error message appears when the person clicks outside of the text box.

<script language=javascript>
function checkNumeric(value)
{
var anum=/(^d+$)|(^d+.d+$)/

Limiting Characters In A Text Box

Jul 23, 2005

I have a input filed of type "textbox" into which I am expecting to get
currency values (ie. 199.99). Is there a way that I can restrict the
user to only entering 2 values after the decimal point?

I can restrict the maxlength to 5, but that wouldn't stop the user from
type in 1.987.

Minimum Characters In Text Area?

May 16, 2011

I have two text areas. I would like to prevent form submitting if the member does not enter at least 100 characters in each text area. There is no maximum number of characters, just the minimum (100 characters).

In case that he hit submit button I would like to display him a message that would inform him that he didn't enter minimum requested characters.

It would be neat if I could have the character counter below of each text area which should be decreased with each entered character.

JQuery :: Prevent User From Adding More Characters Into A Text?

Jul 2, 2009

is there a way to prevent user from adding more characters into a text input based on a validation rule(eg. you entered more than n words, you can't enter more, but you can delete or edit)? I think I'll have to programmatically delete the extra letter(s) that user just input somehow if the addition causes a violation of the rule, is this the best way?

Does If, Else If Require An Ending Else?

May 13, 2006

For a long time I have been using:

if
else if
else if
else if

For example, I'm using it now to put different ads on different forum pages after checking the forum number in the URL. If there's no match, I don't want an ad on the page.

Is my code above "legal" or does it require an else at the end?

BTW, the reason I do it that way instead of just using ifs is that I figured that once it found a true condition it wouldn't bother reading the following else ifs and that would save time... it would run faster.

Require One Of Two Fields To Be Filled (either/or)?

Sep 22, 2010

Here is my issue that I am trying to resolve. I know how to make a field in a form required for validation however what I am trying to do is require that at least one of two available fields is filled in. The form performs a search using the 'first name', 'last name' or both. What I need is for the form to require at a minimum that at least one of the two fields is filled in prior to sending it to the script to do the search.Here is what it should do in each instance:

[first name] [NA] = form submitted
[NA] [last name] = form submitted
[first name] [last name] = form submitted
[na] [na] = Not submitted

Geolocation Service That Does Not Require An API-key?

Feb 12, 2010

I'm playing with a greasemonkey script and would like to provide geo-locating. The geolocation services I've found all require dev/api-key. A dev-key means I reveal my well-earned key, or an api-key usually means a server address... there would be none via a greasemonkey script.

JQuery :: Have Selector Require 2 Classes Instead Of Just 1

Apr 24, 2009

So I understand you can do:
$(".className").xxx.
Is there an easy way with jquery to have it match 2 classes. So maybe I only want the action to take place it the element has class1 and class2.
$(".class1" , ".class2").xxx
The above is close to what I would like, but thats if any of the 2 classes match, go. I need it to be both. I can probably do this with some basic javascript logic.. just figure there may be a function for this already.
