Menu
Please correct the below code it is not working as expected i.e, i need a error message to be shown just beside the textfield in the form when user enters an invalid name
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function validate() {
if(myform.fname.value.length==0)
{
document.getElementById("fname").innerHTML="this is invalid name ";
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="myform">
First_Name
<input type=text id=fname name=fname onblur="validate()"> </input>
<br> <br>
Last_Name
<input type=text id=lname name=lname onblur="validate()"> </input>
<br>
<input type=button value=check>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Ease of use — The only change when writing JavaScript code is to use function NewAlert() instead of function alert() .
To customize the appearance and text of these messages, you must use JavaScript; there is no way to do it using just HTML and CSS. HTML5 provides the constraint validation API to check and customize the state of a form element. var email = document. getElementById("mail"); email.
The Window alert() method is used to display an alert box. It displays a specified message along with an OK button and is generally used to make sure that the information comes through the user. It returns a string which represents the text to display in the alert box.
I m agree with @ReNjITh.R answer but If you want to display error message just beside textbox. Just like below
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function validate()
{
if(myform.fname.value.length==0)
{
document.getElementById('errfn').innerHTML="this is invalid name";
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="myform">
First_Name
<input type=text id=fname name=fname onblur="validate()" /><span id="errfn"></span>
<br> <br>
Last_Name
<input type=text id=lname name=lname onblur="validate()"/><br>
<input type=button value=check />
</form>
</body>
Try this code
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function validate() {
if(myform.fname.value.length==0)
{
document.getElementById('errfn').innerHTML="this is invalid name";
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="myform">
First_Name
<input type=text id=fname name=fname onblur="validate()"> </input><div id="errfn"> </div>
<br> <br>
Last_Name
<input type=text id=lname name=lname onblur="validate()"> </input>
<br>
<input type=button value=check>
</form>
</body>
</html>
