Thanx....
Your type checking routine doesn't work, but I have one of my own which i'm already using. besides which using parseFloat on an alpha type is not a fatal error.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Begin
function validate(field) {
var valid = "0123456789"
var ok = "yes";
var temp;
for (var i=0; i<field.value.length; i++) {
temp = "" + field.value.substring(i, i+1);
if (valid.indexOf(temp) == "-1") ok = "no";
}
if (ok == "no") {
alert("Invalid entry! numbers are accepted!");
field.focus();
field.select();
}
}
// End -->
</script>
this is a script that checks a field to ensure it has only numbers, although you could add other chars....
