Hello David,

Thanks for the welcome.

Yes, I am checking that they are not empty. Thanks for the feedback.

Sincerely,
Yogesh

Hello,

This is my first post to this NYPHP mailing list. So hello to everyone and thanks for the thorough discussions which help a beginner developer like me.

Welcome, was the same with me, except that I never really left beginner stage.

to have have inbuilt function for such commonly used field types. I will like to know how people tackle these issue.
Thanks.


The only thing I would check is that the fields are not empty. The maximum length is set via the maxlength parameter in HTML and everything else qualifies as a valid name. I don't think you can reasonably script validation to make sure that the first name entered is "Dirk" and not "Dork".
