Thanks, that was nice and direct. I actually tracked down the problem; it lies in the fact that the cfform.js *changes* the value before validating. I can't guess why they did this, but they strip spaces, dollar, pound, yen, euro, commas, tildas and plus signs before deciding that it's good. I'm not sure how you can call that "validation".
At least now I have a reason/explanation and I can make an argument for retro-fitting all the forms. OT: has anyone used Dojo? -----Original Message----- From: Josh Nathanson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2007 1:04 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: improved js for form validation? 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 This email message may contain privileged and/or confidential information.
