Hi
I use the following form validation and it works all fine, except my email input does not get validated.
Input type = email
field name = emailto
this is the code:
function formCheck(formobj){
// Enter name of mandatory fields
var fieldRequired = Array("emailto","from", "emailfrom","zigi");
// Enter field description to appear in the dialog box
var fieldDescription = Array("Friends E-mail","Friends Name", "Your E-mail","Your Name");
// dialog message
var alertMsg = "These fields cannot be left blank:\n";
var l_Msg = alertMsg.length;
for (var i = 0; i < fieldRequired.length; i++){
var obj = formobj.elements[fieldRequired[i]];
if (obj){
switch(obj.type){
case "select-one":
if (obj.selectedIndex == -1 || obj.options[obj.selectedIndex].text == ""){
alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
}
break;
case "select-multiple":
if (obj.selectedIndex == -1){
alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
}
break;
case "text":
case "textarea":
if (obj.value == "" || obj.value == null){
alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
}
break;
case "email":
if (obj.value == "" || obj.value == null){
alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
}
var strValue = emailto.obj.value;
var strFilter = /^([0-9a-z]([-.\w]*[0-9a-z])*@(([0-9a-z])+([-\w]*[0-9a-z])*\.)+[a-z]{2,6})$/i;
if (!strFilter.test(strValue))
alertMsg = "wrong or incomplete email" + fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
}
break;
default:
}
if (obj.type == undefined){
var blnchecked = false;
for (var j = 0; j < obj.length; j++){
if (obj[j].checked){
blnchecked = true;
}
}
if (!blnchecked){
alertMsg += " - " + fieldDescription[i] + "\n";
}
}
}
}
if (alertMsg.length == l_Msg){
return true;
}else{
alert(alertMsg);
return false;
}
}What am I missing in the email validation, please?
Thank a lot
