validate numeric field

[juicy]

I done a numeric field checking as below, but I found that if I insert
float number (10.01), it validate it as non numeric and return false..
What is going wrong?

if (!isNumeric(doc ument.frmA.f1.v alue)) {
alert("Please fill in Numeric")docume nt.frmA.f1.valu e=""
document.frmA.f 1.focus()
return false;
}

The isNumeric() function thinks it is 'non numeric'.

If you post the code for it, or a link, you might get more help.
Hopefully it is better presented than the ugly snippet posted above.

I got the solution, should be isMoney() and not isNumeric().

Next to eval(), money is the root of all evil.

Do you infer isMoney() is basic javascript?

<FAQENTRY> The string "valid" occurs nowhere in the newsgroup FAQ. That
should be remedied. </FAQENTRY>

OP : see <URL:http://www.merlyn.demo n.co.uk/js-valid.htm>.

Re <FAQ**TRY> : ISTM over-optimistic to expect all responders to make
the change. But if originators are requested to put <FAQENTRY> at the
beginning of a line, then most will comply if only "accidental ly". The
routine that searches for <FAQ..TRY> can then be modified to search with
/^\s*<FAQE..RY>. and should find predominantly the originals.

Read the FAQ to the end, and you will understand. The penultimate full
stop should have been a slash.

I see, you wouldn't mean
the predominantly slashed penultimate ab-originals?

And that in rhyme! It should be the slogan of this NG:
