Available validation options will vary, depending on the type of form object
selected. Validation options include:

field, select an option from the radio button, check box, or combo box, or
summit a file in the file selector.
• EmailAddress requires that the visitor’s text input is in valid email address
form (e.g., joesmith@netobjects.com).
• DomainName requires that the text input follow the conventions for a
standard domain name. Text input must contain a standard URL extension
(.org, .com, etc.) and cannot contain certain characters (e.g., @).
• LengthInRange specifies range the number of characters that the text input
must contain. For example, you can create a validation option so that the
text input contains at least 5 characters but no more than 10.
• PhoneNumber requires that the visitor’s text input is in valid phone number
structure (e.g., 555-555-5555).
• CreditCard validates a credit card number the user enters based on the rules
of that card. You must a add a form object for each credit card type (Visa,
MasterCard, etc.) that you want to validate.
• Date requires that the user input a date in the format that you select in the
Parameters field.
• Number ensures that the visitor’s input is numeric and contains no letters or
special characters.
• NumberRange verifies that the visitor’s text input is numeric and that the
value is within a specified range. For example, you could ask visitors to rate
a service on a scale of 1 through 5. Any input that does not fall within that
range of values will be invalid. You specify the range of values in the
Paramaters field.
