Hello Experts,
I need your guidance.
I have three text box.
I want to validate the form with phone number like 111-111-1111 (not 1's but 10 digit in this format).
They are allowed to enter null and move on. I want to use onBlur.
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree1" value="databasevalue">
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree2" value="databasevalue">
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree3" value="databasevalue">
Thank you very much,
Regards,

How about this:
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree1" value="databasevalue" size="3" maxlength="3" onKeyUp="if(this.value.mat
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree2" value="databasevalue" size="3" maxlength="3" onKeyUp="if(this.value.mat
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree3" value="databasevalue" size="4" maxlength="4" onKeyUp="if(this.value.mat
Or like this:
<script>
function checkDigit(theField){
if(theField.value.match(/\
theField.value=theField.va
}
}
</script>
<form>
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree1" value="databasevalue" size="3" maxlength="3" onKeyUp="checkDigit(this)"
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree2" value="databasevalue" size="3" maxlength="3" onKeyUp="checkDigit(this)"
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree3" value="databasevalue" size="4" maxlength="4" onKeyUp="checkDigit(this)"
</form>
Here's a function:
function IsPhoneNumber(obj) {
if (/^[0-9]{3}\-[0-9]{3}\-[0-
// It's a phone number
}
else {
// It's not a phone number
}
}
HTML:
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree3" value="databasevalue" onblur="IsPhoneNumber(this
This will only check phonenumbers in that exact format. Let me know if it needs to be less strict!
I am assuming that the three inputs are the 3 parts of the phone number. If so, here is some code that will work.
function checkField(inputName, len) {
var obj=document.getElementByI
if(obj.value.length<len&&o
document.getElementById(ta
}
}
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree1" value="databasevalue" onBlur="checkField('DeptTo
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree2" value="databasevalue" onBlur="checkField('DeptTo
<input type="text" name="DeptTollFree3" value="databasevalue" onBlur="checkField('DeptTo
Pardon my not mentioning exactly mentioned what I meant. Thank you all for participating.
What actually I am looking for that one field have validation. <input type="text" name="DeptTollFree1" value="databasevalue"> will have whole value of 111-212-1234 . I have three fields like that for three different phone #.
I tried NT's solution it does not do anything when Blur.
I will try all the solution one by one.
Kind regards for responding.

pinal, you need to supply your own actions inside the javascript function. I don't know what you want done!
For instance, you might want to give a message, clear the field and focus on it again if it's wrong (and do nothing if it's right):
function IsPhoneNumber(obj) {
if (/^[0-9]{3}\-[0-9]{3}\-[0-
// It's a phone number
}
else {
// It's not a phone number
alert("Please enter a valid phone number.");
obj.value = "";
obj.focus();
}
}
