We do this using Java Script as follow


function isCurrency(userEntry) {
        var decimalPoint = /\./;
        var digitsAfterDecimal = /\..{1,2}$/;

        if (decimalPoint.test(userEntry) == true){
                if (digitsAfterDecimal.test(userEntry)==false)
                        return false;
                else
                        return true;
        }
        else
                return true;
}

                        if (isCurrency(txtAmount) == false){
                                alert("Item price should have only 2 digits
after decimal point");
                                frmDelivery.txtPrice.focus();

                                return false;
                        }


                        if (    ((((txtAmount).indexOf('.')) == -1) &&
                                                (txtAmount.length > 11))
                                        || (((txtAmount).indexOf('.')) >
11)){
                                alert("Item price is too big ");

                                frmDelivery.txtPrice.focus();

                                return false;
                        }

        Subject:        [JSP-INTEREST] To check the field

        All,

        Anyboyd would like to share how easy to check the field which is
string but
        only 1 or 1.0 or 2.1 such data can be entered.

        I could do it if I put the data field as number(10,1) something, but
it can
        not be retrieved from the perl script.

        So I put the data field as varchar2 (oracle db), and now I need to
validate
        the data entry in the user interface.
        User can not put string 'a', or 'a.a' .

        Thanks,

        Carol
