Yes, web2py supports Javascript functions (you can do whatever you want on 
the client side). In a couple places, your code has the wrong kind of 
quotes -- instead of " you have ”. In particular:

onSubmit=”return textFieldValidation();”

should be:

onSubmit="return textFieldValidation();"

and

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=”javascript”>

should be:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">

Actually, the language attribute has been deprecated -- so it should really 
just be:

<script>
