comare a text field value before applying function 1

[feshangi]

I have this inputer field:

<input name="The301" type="text" size="5" maxlength="8" value="#The301#" style="font-size:9px" onFocus="javascript:vDateType='1'" onKeyUp="DateFormat(this,this.value,event,false,'1')" onBlur="DateFormat(this,this.value,event,true,'1')">

I would like to not apply the above onFocus/onKeyUp/onBlue if the value entered to this field is equal to NA/na or YES/yes or NO/no.

I would really appriciate if someone can help me with this.

Thanks,

Mike

Do it in the function itself.

function DateFormat(obj, val, e, bool, num) {
  if (val.toLowerCase() != 'na' && val.toLowerCase() != 'yes' && val.toLowerCase() != 'no') {
     // put the rest of the function here
  }
}

Thanks for the code.

I have a little problem which when I insert my existing JS into your codes the date-auto-format doesn't work anymore. By that I mean my JS was responsible for properly formatting the date so if you would enter 010101 it would automatically convert it to 01/01/01.

Here is my actual JS:

// JavaScript Document
<!-- Begin
// Check browser version
var isNav4 = false, isNav5 = false, isIE4 = false
var strSeperator = "/"; 
// If you are using any Java validation on the back side you will want to use the / because 
// Java date validations do not recognize the dash as a valid date separator.
var vDateType = 3; // Global value for type of date format
//                1 = mm/dd/yyyy
//                2 = yyyy/dd/mm  (Unable to do date check at this time)
//                3 = dd/mm/yyyy
var vYearType = 4; //Set to 2 or 4 for number of digits in the year for Netscape
var vYearLength = 2; // Set to 4 if you want to force the user to enter 4 digits for the year before validating.
var err = 0; // Set the error code to a default of zero
if(navigator.appName == "Netscape") {
if (navigator.appVersion < "5") {
isNav4 = true;
isNav5 = false;
}
else
if (navigator.appVersion > "4") {
isNav4 = false;
isNav5 = true;
   }
}
else {
isIE4 = true;
}
function DateFormat(vDateName, vDateValue, e, dateCheck, dateType) {
vDateType = dateType;
// vDateName = object name
// vDateValue = value in the field being checked
// e = event
// dateCheck 
// True  = Verify that the vDateValue is a valid date
// False = Format values being entered into vDateValue only
// vDateType
// 1 = mm/dd/yyyy
// 2 = yyyy/mm/dd
// 3 = dd/mm/yyyy
//Enter a tilde sign for the first number and you can check the variable information.
if (vDateValue == "~") {
alert("AppVersion = "+navigator.appVersion+" \nNav. 4 Version = "+isNav4+" \nNav. 5 Version = "+isNav5+" \nIE Version = "+isIE4+" \nYear Type = "+vYearType+" \nDate Type = "+vDateType+" \nSeparator = "+strSeperator);
vDateName.value = "";

GOOD GOD that's a ton of code.
And none of it is even indented, which makes for easy reading.

Step 1: Put two new lines in here:

function DateFormat(vDateName, vDateValue, e, dateCheck, dateType) {
[blue]vDateValue = vDateValue.toLowerCase();
if (vDateValue != 'no' && vDateValue != 'yes' && vDateValue != 'na') {[/blue]
vDateType = dateType;

And this at the very end of your function (right before your function-closing }:

}

I can't tell you where exactly to put that, because I can't tell where the function ends.

Thanks again.

We are almost there!

1)
The problem now I have is as I'm entering any letter automatically it gets removed even though we have your function in there. What do you think is causing this?

2)
How can I say vDateValue also NOT EQUAL TO this value

  /    /  

by   I mean an empty space.

Thanks,

Mike

 

[cLFlaVA]

1) you are calling the function from the onkeyup event, you'll need to remove that.

[feshangi]

still doing it

 

[feshangi]

If I remove the onkeyup then the Date Auto Format won't work!

 

[feshangi]

what do you think if we add these as well:

vDateValue != 'y'
vDateValue != 'e'
vDateValue != 'n'

 

[cLFlaVA]

go for it.

can you please help me with this:

just add another:

vDateValue != " / / "

one more

Can you please help me to write a function if a value of a text box is not equal to "yes" or "no" or empty then prompt with a warnning message and set the focus on that text box with null value?

Thanks
