/******************************************************************************* FILE: RegExpValidate.js DESCRIPTION: This file contains a library of validation functions using javascript regular expressions. Library also contains functions that re- format fields for display or for storage. VALIDATION FUNCTIONS: validateEmail - checks format of email address validateUSPhone - checks format of US phone number validateNumeric - checks for valid numeric value validateInteger - checks for valid integer value validateNotEmpty - checks for blank form field validateUSZip - checks for valid US zip code validateUSDate - checks for valid date in US format validateValue - checks a string against supplied pattern FORMAT FUNCTIONS: rightTrim - removes trailing spaces from a string leftTrim - removes leading spaces from a string trimAll - removes leading and trailing spaces from a string removeCurrency - removes currency formatting characters (), $ addCurrency - inserts currency formatting characters removeCommas - removes comma separators from a number addCommas - adds comma separators to a number removeCharacters - removes characters from a string that match passed pattern AUTHOR: Karen Gayda DATE: 03/24/2000 *******************************************************************************/ var RegExpValidate = new function () { this.validateEmail = function ( strValue) { /************************************************ DESCRIPTION: Validates that a string contains a valid email pattern.
