function regular(string) {
if (string.search(/^[0-9]*$/) != -1)

Have you got several textboxes then?
Are you submitting the form somewhere?

this might help:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript1.2"><!--
function regular(string) {
if (string.search(/^[0-9]*$/) != -1)
return true;
else
return false;
}
function verify()
{
var j;
for(j=0;j<document.frm1.txt1.length;j++)
{
if(!regular(document.frm1.txt1[j].value))
{
alert('Not Valid');
document.frm1.txt1[j].focus();
return false
}
}
return true;
}
//--></script>
</head>
<body>
<form onSubmit='return verify()' name='frm1'>
<input type="text" name="txt1"><br>
<input type="text" name="txt1"><br>
<input type="text" name="txt1"><br>
<input type="text" name="txt1"><br>

Try this:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript1.2"><!--
function regular(string) {
if (string.search(/^[0-9]*$/) != -1)
return true;
else
return false;
}
function verify(t)
{
if(!regular(t.value))
{
alert('Not Valid');
t.focus();
return false
}
return true;
}
//--></script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="text" onBlur="verify(this)"><br>
<input type="text" onBlur="verify(this)"><br>
<input type="text" onBlur="verify(this)"><br>
<input type="text" onBlur="verify(this)"><br>
</form>
</body>
</html>
