validation on a textfield value

[juicy]

I want to do validation on a textfield value key in by user, but I do not
have idea on what method I can use. Is it possible to do it on 'onblur'
event?

Please give some ideas or useful links about this.

Thanks.

Don't use onblur, use the onchange event handler.

Yes; but often unwise.
