VB Script in ASP

[Codehammer]

Response.Write("Your Cellphone Number:<input type='textbox' onblue='validateTelephone' name='oCELLPHONE'/><br>")

I Have the Following VB Script Code:

Sub validateTelephone()
  if mid(document.frmCustomerDetails.txtTelephone.value,1,1) <>"(" then
     MsgBox "The Telephone Number must be in the Form: (000)000-0000",8,"Error"
     
        elseif mid(document.frmCustomerDetails.txtTelephone.value,9,1) <>"-" then
     MsgBox "The Telephone Number must be in the Form: (000)000-0000",8,"Error"
end if 
end sub

I Dont know where to Put This, I Tried in the Body which Gave Errors, Then I Tried in the Head in its own [script] ,[/script] and then it worked but the following error for document.frmCustomerDetails.txtTelephone.

I Know is Suppose to be request.form(oCELLPHONE) instead of document.frmCustomerDetails.txtTelephone but that doesnt Work. That is Why I Posted the Vb Code Fully.
Where is this thing Wrong? Onblur is used, then thats maybe why request is getting the error since I think request is only for Posts or Not?

Thanks

Hi,

General tip for you.

All script that needs to be pre-loaded befor eth epage for controls and such , go above the document header, at line 1, therefore theyll load before your apge controls will, giving better response time.

and put it between

<% 
 
code
 
%>

This will parse it as server side code.

That where the code is and the % stuff is in. the validation wont work because of something in document.frmCustomerDetails.txtTelephone.value

Any Idea?

VBScript is not like VB. you need to use the "Request" object to grab your information. try using Request.Form("txtTelephone") <- in place of what you have to retrieve the telephone there.

Here's What is Suppose to Happen, I have a Aspx page with a textbox called OCellphone. When the focus is lost for this the sub validatetelephone is called. the code was originally for vbscript which worked 100%. I basically need a conversion for aspx as the error that occurs: "document.frmCustomerDetails.txtTelephone.value"
I know its suppose to be Request.Form("OCellphone") but that does not work, which is why I psoed the Code. Could Someone please test it to see why its doesnt seem to ID the textbox Ocellphone.
