// General JavaScript Validator
//
// author: Myles Chippendale, 1999
//
// This script validates fields input from a form by checking
//
// 1) if the field is empty or not
// 2) if the field matches a given regular expression
// 3) if the field passes any other validation you wish to perform
//    in an arbitary javascript function
//
// To get a field to be validated, you need to call the add_rule
// function (see below) with appropriate arguments. You can also
// use the utility functions below for common validation functions
// e.g. add_date("field", "Your Field", 1);
//
// You also need to add the following to any submit buttons:
//
//    onClick="return validate(this.form)"

// Strings gathered in one place for ease of internationalisation.
// Note spaces are important.
var is_not_defined_for_this_form = "n'est pas défini pour cette forme";
var must_be_filled_in = "Doit être complété";
var the_value = "La valeur";
var is_not_allowed = "on ne permet pas";
var there_were_problems = "Cette forme n'a pas été soumise parce qu'il y avait des problèmes avec les champs suivants";
var continue_anyway = "Voulez-vous continuer de toute façon ?";
var correct_and_try_again = "Svp le corret ces en essayent encore.";

var rules = new Array();
var rulecount = 0;

// Function add_rule(name, heading, mandatory, pattern, snippet)
//
// name      - name of the input field to validate
// heading   - what to call the field for the user's benefit
// mandatory - 0,"0",false or null object means the field can be blank
// pattern   - a regular expression which any value entered into the
//             HTML form must match against for validation to succeed.
//             We need to escape special characters with '\', including '\'
//             itself (e.g. use \\s in your string if you want to match a
//             whitespace char - we want the expression to contain the 2
//             characters '\s', not s. If you put brackets into your
//             expression then JavaScript will allow you to access them
//             through the global (to each window) variable RegExp as
//             RegExp.$1 ... RegExp.$9 in any javascript (for instance,
//             the next argument :-)
// snippet   - the body of JavaScript function. You can use this to perform
//             more general validation tests than just matching a regular
//             expression. It has access to one formal paramater, 'value' -
//             the value of the input field being validated. It also has
//             access to global variables such as RegExp.$1. It should
//             return nothing (or an empty string) if validation succeeds,
//             otherwise it should return a string to be shown to the user
//             explaining the problem.

// confirm dialog box (with "OK" and "Cancel" options) which will
// submit the form anyway if OK is clicked.
