No input validation

  • Using php code to display form: <?php echo smlsubform(); ?>
    When name and email is empty success message is displayed. There should be an error state when input is empty or email is invalid.

    Someone posted this useful bit of code that solves the problem:

    <script type=”text/javascript”>
    jQuery(document).ready(function() {
    jQuery(‘input[name=”submit”]’).bind(‘click’, function() {
    var nameLength = jQuery(‘input[name=”sml_name”]’).val().length;
    if (nameLength < 3) {
    alert (“Please enter at least 3 letters for name”);
    return false;
    }
    var pattern=/(^[a-zA-Z_.+-]+)@([a-zA-Z_-]+).([a-zA-Z]{2,4}$)/i;
    var email = jQuery(‘input[name=”sml_email”]’).val();
    if (pattern.test(email))
    return true;
    else {
    alert (“Please enter a valid email address”);
    return false;
    }
    });
    });
    </script>

    I just stuck it in a div at the end of the page where my register form is, works a treat!

    @mdolbear is there an updated version of this? It’s still not working for me.
