    Parsing a text field with JavaScript

    I have an HTML form with a textbox in it that allows the users to enter either a single number, multiple numbers separated by commas, or a range of numbers, separated by a hyphen. For example.

    15
    23,44,55
    11-29

    Does anyone have a block of code that already does this or can point me to one?

    Thank you.

    Hey,

    Isn't that rather simple you just request te value and then try to slice it? First slice at "-" then check the first number and the second then slice at ",". May be an half an hour work, but you can do it!

    Good luck
    Ok
