Hi, How can I strip out the dirty characters shown in textarea after to extract the tags from a webpage and before submitting to another page? By dirty characters I take in mind the characters shown in the image below. - Replacing double space with a unique space - Replacing "squares" with a blank space - delete contents between "<!--" and "-->" or "<?" and "?>" Jan Lee Hello I have this snippet for controlling the number of characters entered in a textarea. It works. But, if I replace in this code the name "my_form" by "contact-form" and "my_text" by "message", it doesnt ! It looks like the keyword is " my_form ". You change that , and the script will not work! It turns out that I have to change those names because the form as it was already had those names my_form and message before I added this counter And I dont want to replace the names of the form in order to adapt them to this code snippet below. The question is why would the script not work if I have just replaced two words, which dont seem to be keywords of JS programming (my_form and my_text) <html><head> <title>(Type a title for your page here)</title> <script language=JavaScript> <!-- function check_length(my_form) { maxLen = 50; // max number of characters allowed if (my_form.my_text.value.length >= maxLen) { // Alert message if maximum limit is reached. // If required Alert can be removed. var msg = "You have reached your maximum limit of characters allowed"; alert(msg); // Reached the Maximum length so trim the textarea my_form.my_text.value = my_form.my_text.value.substring(0, maxLen); } else{ // Maximum length not reached so update the value of my_text counter my_form.text_num.value = maxLen - my_form.my_text.value.length;} } //--> </script> </head> <body> <form name=my_form method=post> <textarea onKeyPress=check_length(this.form); onKeyDown=check_length(this.form); name=my_text rows=4 cols=30></textarea> <br> <input size=1 value=50 name=text_num> Characters Left </form> </body> </html> I have been using code such as Code: a=a.replace(/ /g,''); b=b.replace(/;,/g,';'); to eliminate spaces in a string, as well as converting things like ";," to ";" in strings. Several instances of these replacements will have to occur in the strings. Unfortunately, I cannot make it work for converting two commas into one or for eliminating line breaks. Does anyone know how to do this (preferably without using "while")? Hi, I have a working contact form with 3 of the fields requiring validation and they work well. I have added extra fields to the form (StatusClass, Project, CameFrom). These 3 fields return fine but I need to validated them.

Any advice? Hi guys, This has been asked before, and i've seen many of the previous posts. And tried for hours. But finally i've broken and have to ask for help. What am I doing wrong here? Can someone please explain? Code: var u=document.forms["lead"]["name"].value; var v=document.forms["lead"]["city"].value; var x=document.forms["lead"]["country"].value; var y=document.forms["lead"]["mobile"].value; var z=document.forms["lead"]["email"].value; if (u==null || u=="") { alert("Please enter your first name."); return false; } if (v==null || v=="") { alert("Please enter your city."); return false; } if (isNaN(lead.y.value)) { alert("bloody work!"); return false; } if (x=="Argentina" && y.length < 11) { alert("Please enter a valid Argentinian phone number."); return false; } Thanks in advance. Thank you for your reply. With the code I had to acknowledge nothing had been inserted,(that is, still spaces, it was working. When I added the code to only accept alpha chars etc., I inserted numbers, nothing worked, with no error message. Would you, or can I send the whole code through for the form. I noticed that the form tags had been changed so I altered them as well according to your message. i have a html/php form which let users upload pictures onto my server. the problem with it is, it says the picture has been uploaded but if the file name contains any of character apart from text (A-z) and numbers, the picture never shows up in the admin panel. is there a way using ajax or jquery to disallow certain file names in the upload field of the html which uses these characters !@#$%^'&*()"? how do i go on about this? I am wondering if it is possible for me to replace my form submit button with an animated gif (fake progress bar), after the button has been pressed. Having so far disabled the button onclick, I would instead be happy if I could simply change the button text from 'Click here to submit' to 'Processing...' I have done some searches here but I'm finding references to innerHTML, etc., and I'm getting lost now. Is this an easy thing to do?

Several posts here are almost what I need, but I can't put it all together.... thank you for your help, this is for a pet rescue charity! When selecting "mini" option, my form should should only allow typing in 6 out of 10 text input fields (the first 3 on the front, and the first 3 on the back too if its selected). Other sizes would allow typing in all 10. The NAME must be the same due to the shoppingcart used, but ID can be different. Also, if mini the maxlength of each should be 14, other sizes each maxlength is different. I will try to put the relevant code below, but one entire form is he http://wooftags.com/bone-iframe.html Code: <select name="product1[]"> <option value="mini">mini</option> <option value="small">small</option> <option value="medium">medium</option> <option value="large">large</option> </SELECT> <input type="text" name="product1[]2" size="14" maxlength="14" style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" /> <br /> <input type="text" name="product1[]2" size="18" maxlength="18" style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" /> <br /> <input type="text" name="product1[]2" size="20" maxlength="20" style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" /> <br /> <input type="text" name="product1[]2" size="25" maxlength="25" style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" /> <br /> <input type="text" name="product1[]2" size="20" maxlength="20" style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" /> <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="price2" VALUE="1"> <input id="back1" type="text" name="product2[]2" size=14 maxlength=14 style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" disabled="disabled"/> <br /> <input id="back2" type="text" name="product2[]2" size=18 maxlength=18 style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" disabled="disabled"/> <br /> <input id="back3" type="text" name="product2[]2" size=20 maxlength=20 style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" disabled="disabled"/> <br /> <input id="back4" type="text" name="product2[]2" size=25 maxlength=25 style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" disabled="disabled"/> <br /> <input id="back5" type="text" name="product2[]2" size=20 maxlength=20 style='text-transform: uppercase;' onblur="this.value=this.value.toUpperCase()" disabled="disabled"/> I'm trying to make a site where when you click the submit button it puts an asterisk next to all of the incomplete fields while also displaying an alert box.
