dsValidator : form validation library

[spinal007]

I originally posted this in the tutorials section (http://www.webforumz.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1305) but not many of you got to read it so I'll try it here:

I hate documenting things so there's no such thing as a manual yet. but if you know your stuff and you're feeling adventurous, check it out and let me know what you think.

the basic idea is:
we all know that forms have a collection of controls (that belong to that form).
so I coded all these little validation scripts to check phone numbers, email, addresses, postcode and all sorta things.

then, I added my own attributes to the controls:
<input type=text dsType=Postcode name=postcode id=postcode>
I don't know if this is valid, but it works beautifully so I'm not that bothered... but i'd like to know......

then I added this to my forms:
onsubmit="return ValidateForm(this);"

so that function goes through every control in the form and validates it according to the attributes of every individual element.

and the script is the same for every form and every page, all I change are the attributes....

but of course, I added a whole lotta fancy things to it so you guys gotta go see it for yourselves.


this is only i beta version and I'm interested to know what you guys think of it.

the code is free to use... do whatever you want with it but please leave the copyright message alone....

for the future (after I've had some feedback):
there are a few issues I need to sort out and a few little bits I want to implement later on so if anyone is interested, just let me know.....
