hi, i am picking up js for form validation. does anybody know how i can add a little check (a tiny image) to the textbox if the content is passed ... and a cross mark maybe if the textbox content failed.

it would be great if someone may just shoot a line of code really quick... thanks very much

below is the code checking a password field.... how do i add an image next to the textbox if it passed the criteria?.....

            <script language="javascript">
			function validator(pass)
			{
				var str
				str = pass                   // <!--prompt("enter a password here.")-->
				var chr = "" 
				var nDigits = 0 
				var nAlphaUpper = 0
				var nAlphaLower = 0 
				var length = str.length
				
				for(position = 0; position <= str.length; position++)
				{
					chr = str.charAt(position)
					
					if(chr >= "0" && chr <= "9")
					{
						nDigits++;
					}
					
					if(chr >= "A" && chr <= "Z" )
					{
						nAlphaUpper++
					}
					
					if(chr >="a" && chr <= "z")
					{
						nAlphaLower++
					}
					
					
				}
				
				if( (length > 5 && length < 14) && (nAlphaUpper > 1) && (nAlphaLower > 1) && (nDigits > 1))
				{
					//document.writeln("Pass")
					alert("Your password met our requirement.")
					
					return true
				}

					return false
				}

Place an empty span next to the inputs and then instead of alert("Your blah met our requirements."); do something like

<input id="passField" name="passField" type="text" /><span></span>
var checkdiv = document.getElementById('passField').nextSibling;
checkdiv.innerHTML = "<img src='somecheckpassimage.jpg' alt='OK' title='OK' />";

That is a good way to handle it if you are wanting to insert an <img /> tag. A faster rendering method would be to place the image tag directly next to the input field like so:

<input id="passField" name="passField" type="text" /><img id="passFieldImg" src="blankimg.gif" />

You can then change the image in your validation function using:

if( /*PASS CONDITION*/ ){
  document.getElementById('passFieldImg').src="pass.gif"
}
else{
  document.getElementById('passFieldImg').src="fail.gif"
}
