Check an input with jQuery.contains()
I want to validate a form with jQuery. So I need to check if an input field ("#validatename")
does not contain few words, like 'United States of America', 'United Kingdom' or 'France' for instance.
To forbidden 'United State开发者_开发百科s of America" (I'll see later for an array with all forbidden strings!), I have...
$("#validatename").keyup(function()
{
var name = $("#validatename").val();
if(name != '')
{
if ($('#validatename:contains("United States of America")').length > 0) // http://stackoverflow.com/questions/902597/jquery-checking-to-see-if-div-contains-text-then-action
{
$("#validatename").css({
"background-image": "url('no.png')"
});
}
else
{
$("#validlastname").css({
"background-image": "url('yes.png')"
});
}
}
}
... But it doesn't work: yes.png
is always displaying!
Any help or idea will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks a lot.
try
$("#validatename").val().indexOf("United States of America") > -1
instead of
$('#validatename:contains("United States of America")').length > 0
you can use
name.indexOf("United States of America") != -1
