How to validate all fields with a certain name
Posted on 2016-10-06
I use the below IF statement to validate a single text field input box called "PhoneNum" on submit. It allows either blank, or 10 digits. I need to apply this logic to all fields with the word "PhoneNum" in the text box name. The fields are added dynamically, so I need to look for all input boxes with "Phonenum" in the name.
I'd like to keep it in an if statement, and use jQuery to do this, with something like: $("[name*=PhoneNum]").....
Could someone assist?

var PhoneNum = $("#PhoneNum").val();
if(/^(\d{0}|\d{10})$/.test(PhoneNum) == false) {
alert("All Phone Number fields can only contain 10 digits.");
$( "#PhoneNum" ).focus();
return false;
}

try this:
$([name*="PhoneNum"]).each(function(){
var PhoneNum = $( this .val();
if(/^(\d{0}|\d{10})$/.test(PhoneNum) == false) {
alert("All Phone Number fields can only contain 10 digits.");
$( this ).focus();
return false;
}
});
This doesn't seem to work. Below is what my function looks like.
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
document.getElementById("Submit").onclick = function() {
$([name*="PhoneNum"]).each(function(){
var PhoneNum = $( this .val();
if(/^(\d{0}|\d{10})$/.test(PhoneNum) == false) {
alert("All Phone Number fields can only contain 10 digits.");
$( this ).focus();
return false;
}
});
</script>
<input type="text" name="PhoneNum">
<input type="text" name="aPhoneNum">
<input type="text" name="PhoneNum3">
<input type="text" name="aPhoneNum">
<input type="text" name="PhoneNum3">
Thanks but that still didn't fix it.
I ended up having to create a new function outside of the submit, and then returning the function in the submit.
