hey guys
i am trying to validate data types within a function inside <script></script>
eg
<script>
function SubmitData() { 
//This is the function for validating that all the information is entered for each text field 
bIsValid = true; 
//To check see if Area contains a value 
if(EditCommunityShopping.idArea.value == "") 
{
 alert ("You must select an Area");
 EditCommunityShopping.idArea.focus(); 
bIsValid = false;
 }

</script>
this function is called on -- onclick
this works fine but i want to check if the value entered for Sales is numeric and not characters
and also  to check if the area entered is characters and not numeric
i tried doing the following but it doesn't work
 
if not isnumeric(EditCommunityShopping.idSales.value) 

{
 alert ("You must enter numeric value for sales");
 EditCommunityShopping.idSales.focus(); 
bIsValid = false;
 }
the above doesn't work.  It doesn't recognize --not isnumeric
anyone know what to do instead.  I will really appreciate itMSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* 

in stead of isnumeric use   isNan for checking numeric.
