'Generic Validation of MULTIPLE Forms.
'
'Purpose
' To perform general client side validation of ALL HTML forms in a page.
'
' NOTE: If you wish to only validate A SINGLE form on a page then call
' blnvalidateform()(singular) instead of this function.
'
' This is common Java script function that can be to be added to any page that
' creates a form and requires general field validation on that form
' (ie make sure fields aren't blank, have the correct data types etc).
'
' To make use of this script do the following:-
'
' 1) Create a HTML
'
'
' 2) No make use of the script code you will have to place a 'validation'
' suffix after the name of the input element you wish to validate.
'
' For example if you have an input text box on your form that
' accepts a postcode, you would normally name it 'PostCode'.
' If you wanted the postcode to be only numeric you would name it
' 'PostCode_n' where 'n' stands for 'only accept numeric input'.
'
' If you wanted to make sure postcode data was always entered then
' name it 'PostCode_m' where 'm' stands for 'Mandatory input'.
'
' You can combine validation criterias. For example if you wanted
' the postcode to be only numeric AND Mandatory, you would name it
' 'PostCode_n_m'.
'
' Here is an example of the tag definition that uses validation,
'
'
'
' Note: You only need suffixes on the NAME not the ID.
'
' Here is a list of currently available Validation Suffixes.
' _C = 'Character Data only (A-B, a-b)
' _N = 'Numeric Data only (0-9)
' _L = 'Numeric Data (long) only (0-9)
' _A = 'Alphanumeric Data only (A-B, a-b, 0-9)
' _S = 'SQL Safe Data only (All characters but @ ' * % ?)
' _P = 'Post Code and Phone Data only.(0-9, brackets, dashes ans spaces)
' _$ = 'Currency format only. (0-9, decimal point)
' _M = 'Must be entererd'
' _D = 'Must be a valid date, specified by the date format passed to this function
'
' 3) Finally, you need to tell the form to submit the validate funtions.
' You do this adding
' ONSUBMIT="return blnValidateForms()"
' to the form tag.
'
' For example
