Oblio, A lot of people on this list don't like cfforms for just the reason you are stating - there are flaws in the js such as the one you've discovered.
I did some testing and found that 1$ will also slip through, as well as 1, (one with a comma). This is why people are saying to try another validation scheme. All you can do is hope the js validations are better in CF8, and get cracking with Massimo's validation, qForms or whatever. -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Leitch, Oblio" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2007 8:45 AM Subject: RE: improved js for form validation? > First, thanks to everyone for responding.
