Validating fields as we type.

[Harrison]

Is it possible to validate the fields as we type? is there any function available for that? I know I can use the tooltip to give information, but I was looking for the possibility to validate instead.
Thanks.

I just found some hooks https://support.themecatcher.net/quform-wordpress/guides/hooks/iphorm_pre_validate not sure if that will do, but could anyone give me an example on what to add inside the hook? I’ve no clue on what the custom code will be.

function my_pre_validate($form)
{
// Custom code
}
add_action('iphorm_pre_validate', 'my_pre_validate');

I use this http://jqueryvalidation.org/ to validate a field as is typed.

But to actually be validated once more during submit I recreated the validation with custom validation in PHP.

here is a piece of code that works with the above script to validate a “Romanian Personal Number” CNP as you type


// check valid CNP as we type
$.validator.addMethod("roCNP", function(value, element) {
var check = false;
var re = /^\d{1}\d{2}(0[1-9]|1[0-2])(0[1-9]|[12]\d|3[01])(0[1-9]|[1-4]\d| 5[0-2]|99)\d{4}$/;
if( re.test(value)) {
var bigSum = 0, rest = 0, ctrlDigit = 0;
var control = '279146358279';
for (var i = 0; i < 12; i++) {
bigSum += value[i] * control[i];
}
ctrlDigit = bigSum % 11;
if ( ctrlDigit == 10 ) ctrlDigit = 1;

if ( ctrlDigit != value[12] ) return false;
else return true;

} return false;
},
"CNP invalid"
);

$('.iphorm-form-1').validate({ // initialize the validation
rules: {

iphorm_1_1: { //CNP
required: true,
// number: true,
roCNP: true
}

}

});


the script needs to enqueued in WP and the above code added in a .js file

Thanks for all the help!
