sort mispelt words

crmpicco · February 20th, 2006, 01:31 PM

Code:

<input type="text" size="12" tabindex="6" name="depdt" />

I have this textbox that accepts a date, but is there a JS function out there that will take misspelt words such as JLU (for JUL) and replace it with JUL?

why not just use a calendar control to populate the field or a set of dropdowns to be sure of correct data entry ?

how do you mean a calendar control Greg?
i need to keep it as a text box, but i was meaning if there was a way to take in 'JLU' and replace it with 'JUL'?
ATM if i enter 10JULY it changes to 10JUL, but if I enter 10JLU is there a way to change it to 10JUL??

Hii Crmpicco!!
Offcourse you can do this ,for this you need to check for each Letter Combinations e.g 1AUG or 1GUA or 1GAU?? , you need to keep all combinations and if found then replace it with original AUG value.
Hope this will help you

Cheers :)
