They come with some risk attached so 'caveat emptor(?)' (buyer beware). Commercial software also comes with risk. As you know I have had a less than good experience with a product you use & recommend but that does not work on my computer and cannot be fixed by the product's support department. Of course you could always write your own software! Thanks for the great article, regards Richard function sbmgOptinValidateForm412(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm412' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm412' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }
