Javascript Validation Scripts

OWS supports comprehensive validation utilities in simple way. All it requires is a SPAN Tag having attributes as listed.

• id - An unique identifier for SPAN
• controltovalidate - Control ID that is required validation
• errormessage - Error message to display for validation fails
• display - Kind of display either Dynamic or None
• evaluationfunction - Name the type of validation to perform. OWS supports the following validation types
  • CompareValidatorEvaluateIsValid
  • CustomValidatorEvaluateIsValid
  • RegularExpressionValidatorEvaluateIsValid
  • RequiredFieldValidatorEvaluateIsValid
  • RangeValidatorEvaluateIsValid
• style - Style of text to display like color, display style, font
• type - Datatype of input value. Refer below for list of datatypes
• initialvalue - Tells what is the initial value set to control. Then validator bypasses control initial value.
• minimumvalue - Requires in Range Validation to set minimum value for range
• maximumvalue - Requires in Range Validation to set maximum value for range
• validationexpression - Requires in RegularExpression Validation to validate the structure (mask) of input

Datatypes

The available data types for OWS validations are:

• Integer
• Double
• Currency
• Date

Other than above type is converted to String. So be specific to mention TYPE in SPAN for every validation.

E.g:                                 <span id="vTextValid" 
                                            controltovalidate="text1" 
                                            errormessage="" 
                                            display="Dynamic"
                                            type="Integer"
                                            evaluationfunction="RangeValidatorEvaluateIsValid" 
                                            minimumvalue = "0"  maximumvalue = "15" 
                                            style="display: none; color: red;">
