What does this have to do with php? You have no php in your code at all.

You might want to consider adding it in though. No form should be submitted without server side validation. Using JavaScript for validation is kind of like putting a plastic lock on your door.

One quick thing I noticed

Your form used the standard submit option in html. What this means is that if one of the web site visitors turns off the javascript option in their web browser, all your fancy checking will no longer work, but the page will still allow them to submit the data / form whatever you want to call it.

If one is going to use Javascript for validating input, then they should change the submit option to use Javascript as well. This way it will probably get rid of the bad data you are getting.

The other possiblitiy is that your Javascript library is not doing what it is supposed to. Since you did not include the Javascript source in your post, I am cannot verify if this is the case or not.
