Hi,

 

I have a contact form which is validated with PHP but I would also like to have a javascript that input in to the form field - "This field is incorrect" would any one know who to this? or point me in the direct?

Here is one example. Are you currently using a javascript library? If you are I'd suggest you used a validator that is compatible with that, if not I'd reccommend a jQuery one.

You could take a look at this.

Thanks I am using the JQuery library however today is the first I look at it, it looks a bit dauntig and huge

JQuery for beginners

thanks, lets see how it goes

that was relativly painless, however it has not stopped my server side validation :-( any ideas

What do you mean it hasn't stopped your server side validation?

 

If you are planning on only using javascript to check the users input, dont!. Javascript can easily be turned off by the user.

sorry mis-typed, I have server side validation, checking if the fields are null and match my set regular expressions, I added javascript to highlight where the errors are etc, but the javascript is now stopping the server side stuff working.
