i have a form for users to enter their name password and e-mail,i am currently using javascript to check that all details have been filled,
if(myForm.fname.value=='')
{
alert("Plz enter a first name")
return false
}
This works if the field is left blank however if the user enters numbers(1,2) or spaces i.e.(" ") how do i deal with these,i also need to check that the e-mail contains "@" and "."
i am currently working on code that searches an excel spreadsheet and displays results. Below is the code for the drop down. I was wondering is there a way to modify this to ignore blanks as when i use the drop down, it contains the blank cell spaces Code:

What I need to know is how to click on a button that is labeled NEW, as in new record, and have the current form open to data input. That is a blank record. After the user then inputs the data to all the fields on the screen and hits the SAVE button the record will then be placed into the database table.
View Replies View RelatedJust wondering if there is a way to give a default value to a form text box if it is left blank. I can set a default value for the textbox but then it shows up in the textbox and that is not what I want. I would like it just determine if the form is blank and change it to the needed value accordingly.
I'll ask a second part to this question as well in case I am going about this all wrong.
What I have is a search page where a user can search for names from a database. However if I have 5 textboxes of different criteria to search from then if all of them are filled then it would have to match a record in the database exactly....
but if only one or two textboxes are used then the other textboxes basically are now set to a wild card. In this case they would be "%". Also to make things more complicated I am using the frontpage DRW for the SQL query.
I have created a database were you submit a job by entering the fields which is fine if it is a site visit but if it is a phone call or remote help not all the fields need to be filled in but if there not filled in it wont submit the values to the database i get data mismatch error code is below.
I either need to be able to send them blank values to the database or ideally i wont to create a option box with Phone call, Site visit and remote help which when selected takes you to the correct page which have different values in the form to fill in.
I have a page that processes a form and one of the fields might be empty as it's optional if it gets selected or not.
In my process page I would like to check if the form field news_image is empty or not.
How would I do this?
<% If Request.Form("news_image") = "" Then %>
Is that how you do it?
I' m getting a (0x80040E2F) error, if I submit my form, with blank textboxes
to my update stored procedure. The stored procedure expect values, so how
can I detect if a form field was empty. I've tried testing to see if the
form field is null, blank and to count the characters, but I can't get it
working. My SQL table allows nulls, so it's not that.
I'm working on a form where the user is not required to fill out every text input. How mught I check for that in an ASP script. Here's what I have:
If Request.Form("mp3title1") == ""
amnt = 0;
Else If Request.Form("mp3title2") == ""
amnt = 1;
Else If Request.Form("mp3title3") == ""
amnt = 2;
Else If Request.Form("mp3title4") == ""
amnt = 3;
Else If Request.Form("mp3title5") == ""
amnt = 4;
End If
Pretty straight forward, its checking in order if the first element is left blank, is the correct technique:
== "", or is there more to it?
I have a form that is being sent over to an asp page. About 5% of the time, the form fields are blank when the ASP page is reading them. But when the user hit the submit button, they were not blank, because I have client-side validation that will not allow the submit to occur if any of the fields are blank. When this occurs, all the fields in the request.form object are blank?
View Replies View RelatedIn my prototype asp page (with no javascript and no password validation, I have a registration form with the following action:
<form name="form" method="post" action="RegDetails.asp">
This works fine, the form details are collected by RegDetails.asp
I am attempting to include javascript server side validation for the pasword, which obviously requires password and password2 fields (to be verified). I have used the script available at:
http://javascript.internet.com/forms/val-pass.html
It works fine in a new blank page with the form action:
<form name=myForm onSubmit="return validatePwd()">
The final stage in this javascript demo form displays an alert box:
else {
alert('Nice job.');
return true;
When I change the first line of my original form to:
<form name=myForm onSubmit="return validatePwd()">
how do I get my original action of - action="RegDetails.asp" instead of this alert box?
I created a feedback form for my website that has only 2 required fields. When you submit the form it calls my asp page which puts the information in a database and then sends me n email with the information that was entered into the form. The problem is that the form only has two required fileds, and if the remaining non required fields are left empty when the asp page is called it does write to the data base, but does not send me any email. However if I go back in and put somethng in every field in the form then when I submit the form and my asp page is called it writes to the data base and sends me an email with the all the information I entered in the feedback form. Is there a way to tell my asp page that it is ok to send the email even if the non required fields are left empty? I really do not want to have to go back through the form and put default values in for each area of the form? Also is there a way to have an error displayed if the email is not sent? My asp code is below....
View Replies View RelatedThe script is designed as a form validator which checks fields for various criteria and then sends a mail with the form contents. Since 40 different forms will be plugged into this script, there needed to be complete seperation between the two.
I've managed it so far by checking for required fields by putting the word 'required' into the name of the field. The script then sources out any fields which has this text and checks them to see if they are filled out.
The problem I've come across now is that I need to check for field length. My idea was to put the amount of characters needed into the name of the field in the form and then have the script check with a Reg Exp. However, Im not too sure of the regular expression needed to check for this.
Can someone suggest one? The one I have at the moment is [1-14] but say I had a field like this: <input type="text" name="passwordrequired12"> That would match bout for 1 and 12. Any ideas?
I have a form field that will contain an IP based on a TeamSpeak or Ventrilo IP. What I need to do, is check to make sure there are 4 groups of numbers in the form field. Or, check to see if the entry contains 3 periods. 1.2.3.4 <--- example there are 4 groups, and 3 periods.
Now of course, the IP can be as large as 4 groups of 3 numbers, so I can't check string length. how would I check this and validate it on my asp processing page?
I need to check a form to make sure the ID is between 8-15 characters and the password is between 8-10. I can create the form, but am not sure how I could check these lengths. i'm sure there is some simple code and also I do not know where I would put it.
View Replies View RelatedI have a form that currently input data into an access db. The first thing that I would like to happen when the Submit button is clicked, is to check one column in the database to see if there are any duplicates before uploading any data. So my question is, how?
View Replies View Relatedi'm making a forum, and previously i was submitting the form to an asp file, which would check for errors -- if there were errors, it would redirect back to the form with error messages to be displayed -- if it was error free, the message would be written to a txt file.
but then i wanted to put in a preview message page, and so error checking and passing values between the three pages is becoming tricky. so i'm at the point where i'm starting to use javascript to error-check, which works fine for making sure the input is good, but i don't know a good way to notify the user that there are errors with javascript. alert messages are unprofessional, and i can't just add text to the page using javascript.
i'd prefer to use only asp, and i'd prefer it if i didn't have to use an extra asp page JUST to error-check. as it is now i have these pages involved in adding a new subject:
post subject (has the form for the subject and message; the user can click either post message, which will directly write the message, or preview message, which will bring them to a page which displays the post as it would appear once written)
preview message (regardless of what the user clicks, it would come here first to do error checking, and depending on what the user clicked it would either redirect to the page which writes the subject, or display the message;
the problem is, if there are errors with the form, i need to point the user back to post subject without losing whatever info they have already entered. the only way i know how to do that is by submitting a form [i can't use a querystring because it won't maintain the message if the user entered multiple lines in the message])
add subject (this does the backend writing of the message, and is only accessed if the fields have made it through the error-checking)
any solutions in mind on how to pass the field values between these three pages?? or is there a better way i can do error checking??
How do I check the field for example zip code to make sure that it has 5 digits?

View Replies View RelatedOn contact, order, recommend a friend page etc. I run a JavaScript that checks that all the required information has been entered into the form, and it will stop the ASP script executing until you change the incorrect information and Submit the form again. With this script, there is a function that checks the email address and tells you if the address is not valid. (i.e. If the address doesn't have an @ sign).
I put this script to work, and found that many people were turning off JavaScript, filling the form in (and now obviously enter XXXXX) into the email address field and then sending the form that way.
As a safety net, the ASP application that sends me an email checks that fields are not blank, but I don't know how (or whether) you can check to see if the email address is valid.
