Then all you need to do is ask.
You must use simple javascript form validation. Here is an example:
<script Language="Javascript">
<!--
// The previous line hides the script from old browsers that cant interpret it
function emailvalidation(entered, alertbox)
{
// E-mail-Validation (c) Henrik Petersen / NetKontoret
// Explained at www.echoecho.com/jsforms.htm
// Please do not remove the this line and the two lines above.
with (entered)
{
apos=value.indexOf("@");
dotpos=value.lastIndexOf(".");
lastpos=value.length-1;
if (apos<1 || dotpos-apos<2 || lastpos-dotpos>3 || lastpos-dotpos<2)
{if (alertbox) {alert(alertbox);} return false;}
else {return true;}
}
}
function valuevalidation(entered, min, max, alertbox, datatype)
{
// Value-Validation (c) Henrik Petersen / NetKontoret
// Explained at www.echoecho.com/jsforms.htm
// Please do not remove the this line and the two lines above.
with (entered)
{
checkvalue=parseFloat(value);
if (datatype)
{smalldatatype=datatype.toLowerCase();
if (smalldatatype.charAt(0)=="i") {checkvalue=parseInt(value)};
}
if ((parseFloat(min)==min && checkvalue<min) || (parseFloat(max)==max && checkvalue>max) || value!=checkvalue)
{if (alertbox!="") {alert(alertbox);} return false;}
else {return true;}
}
}
function digitvalidation(entered, min, max, alertbox, datatype)
{
// Digit-Validation (c) Henrik Petersen / NetKontoret
// Explained at www.echoecho.com/jsforms.htm
// Please do not remove the this line and the two lines above.
with (entered)
{
checkvalue=parseFloat(value);
if (datatype)
{smalldatatype=datatype.toLowerCase();
if (smalldatatype.charAt(0)=="i") {checkvalue=parseInt(value); if (value.indexOf(".")!=-1) {checkvalue=checkvalue+1}};
}
if ((parseFloat(min)==min && value.length<min) || (parseFloat(max)==max && value.length>max) || value!=checkvalue)
{if (alertbox!="") {alert(alertbox);} return false;}
else {return true;}
}
}
function emptyvalidation(entered, alertbox)
{
// Emptyfield-Validation (c) Henrik Petersen / NetKontoret
// Explained at www.echoecho.com/jsforms.htm
// Please do not remove the this line and the two lines above.
with (entered)
{
if (value==null || value=="")
{if (alertbox!="") {alert(alertbox);} return false;}
else {return true;}
}
}
function formvalidation(thisform)
{
with (thisform)
{
if (emailvalidation(Email,"Illegal E-mail")==false) {Email.focus(); return false;};
if (valuevalidation(Value,0,5,"Value MUST be in the range 0-5")==false) {Value.focus(); return false;};
if (digitvalidation(Digits,3,4,"You MUST enter 3 or 4 integer digits","I")==false) {Digits.focus(); return false;};
if (emptyvalidation(Whatever,"The textfield is empty")==false) {Whatever.focus(); return false;};
}
}
// The next line causes oldfashion browsers to start interpreting the code again.
//-->
</script>
and in the form:
<form onsubmit="return formvalidation(this)" align="center" name="detectform"><table border="1"><tr><td align="right" bgcolor="#008080"><font color="#FFFFFF" face="Arial">EMAIL:</font></td><td><div align="left"><p><font face="Arial"><input type="text" name="Email" size="20" onChange="emailvalidation(this,'Invalid Email');"></font></td></tr><tr> <td align="right" bgcolor="#008080"><font color="#FFFFFF" face="Arial">VALUE (0-5):</font></td><td><font face="Arial"><input type="text" name="Value" size="20" onChange="valuevalidation(this, 0, 5,'Value MUST be an Integer in the range: 0-5');"></font></td></tr><tr><td align="right" bgcolor="#008080"><font color="#FFFFFF" face="Arial"> VALUE (Integer, 3-4 digits):</font></td><td><font face="Arial"><input type="text" name="Digits" size="20" onChange="digitvalidation(this, 3, 4,'You MUST enter 3 or 4 Integer Digits','Integer');"></font></td></tr><tr><td align="right" bgcolor="#008080"><font color="#FFFFFF" face="Arial"> Do not leave this field empty:</font></td><td><font face="Arial"><input type="text" name="Whatever" size="20"></font></td></tr><tr><td align="right" bgcolor="#008080" colspan="2"><font color="#FFFFFF"><div align="center"><center><p><font face="Arial"><input type="submit" value="Click here to validate all fields at once" name="Button1"></font></td></tr></table></form>
Try this out in an html page and you'll understand what's happening. To note here is the part I've highlighted in green.
