JavaScript form validation script based on MooTools

Working with web forms is part of every web developer’s day, there’s always new designs, plugins and scripts that help designers to make better forms. Probably the most important fact in web forms is validation, which is basically the system that parses each form based on the user’s interaction.

VMFormValidator is a JavaScript form validation script based on MooTools 1.3. The script is dedicated to provide a simple and reliable validation for all web form types through all browsers in a very simple way. It’s 100% styled in CSS and permits custom validations and error messages. The error messages can be displayed on top of the form, above or below each input.

VMFormValidator should not be used as a replacement for the classic server-side validation (using PHP, .NET, etc) because JavaScript can be disabled. On the featured sample you can validate all fields and the form will not be submitted until you have fulfilled all fields properly.

On the sample survey form you can validate all fields and the form will not be submitted until all fields are properly filled out. Note that Firefox and Opera manage the radio button tabbing differently than IE, Google Chrome, and Safari.

In the official website you can find a complete documentation that includes tutorials, demos, syntax explanation, different methods stripped down and many more great features such as:

  • Unobtrusive, the script doesn’t require changes to existing (X)HTML markup.
