Posted on by Alok Sharma 340

Hi All,

I'm trying to apply regular exp. for URL which should accept normal standard 

but it is not happening 

here is the code :

function URLtest() {
//var alertreq = false;
var testres = true;

var URLvali = "/(ftp|http|https):\/\/(\w+:{0,1}\w*@)?(\S+)(:[0-9]+)?(\/|\/([\w#!:.?+=&%@!\-\/]))?/";
var name = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_websiteurl").getValue();//nameeld where u want to check the special character
for (var i = 0; i < name.length; i++) {
if (URLvali.indexOf(name.charAt(i)) != -1) {
testres = false;

}
}

if (testres == false) {
Xrm.Page.getControl("new_websiteurl").setNotification("Website formate should be in correct format");

}
else {
Xrm.Page.getControl("new_websiteurl").clearNotification();
}

}

Plz let me know if any changes required coz it is throwing error for correct format also.

    Hi Alok Sharma,

    Please try the following code.

    var URLvali = new RegExp("(http|ftp|https)://[\w-]+(\.[\w-]+)+([\w.,@?^=%&amp;:/~+#-]*[\w@?^=%&amp;/~+#-])?");

    See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8188645/javascript-regex-to-match-a-url-in-a-field-of-text

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Nithya,

    I'm using above line so it's throwing error like :

    One of the scripts for this record has caused an error. For more details, download the log file.

    TypeError: URLvali.indexOf is not a function at URLtest (kcb2.crm8.dynamics.com/.../new_URL_Validate)

    I'm using this code can you plz check where I'm committing mistake :

    Code is :

    // JavaScript source code

    function URLtest() {

       //var alertreq = false;

       var testres = true;

       //var iChars = /(ftp|http|https):\/\/(\w+:{0,1}\w*@)?(\S+)(:[0-9]+)?(\/|\/([\w#!:.?+=&%@!\-\/]))?/;

       var URLvali =new RegExp("(http|ftp|https)://[\w-]+(\.[\w-]+)+([\w.,@?^=%&:/~+#-]*[\w@?^=%&/~+#-])?");

       var name = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_websiteurl").getValue();//nameeld where u want to check the special character

       for (var i = 0; i < name.length; i++) {

           if (URLvali.indexOf(name.charAt(i)) !=1) {

               testres = false;

           }

       }

       if (testres == false) {

           Xrm.Page.getControl("new_websiteurl").setNotification("Website format should be in correct format");

           //alertreq = true;

       }

       else {

           Xrm.Page.getControl("new_websiteurl").clearNotification();

           //alertreq = false;

       }

    }

    Hi Alok,

    Instead of index of, you could use the test method.

    Try the following code.

       var URLvali = /(ftp|http|https):\/\/(\w+:{0,1}\w*@)?(\S+)(:[0-9]+)?(\/|\/([\w#!:.?+=&%@!\-\/]))?/;
   var name = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_websiteurl").getValue();//nameeld where u want to check the special character
   if (URLvali.test(name)){
           testres = true;
   }
       else{
               testres = false;
       }
   if (testres == false) {
       Xrm.Page.getControl("new_websiteurl").setNotification("Website format should be in correct format");
       //alertreq = true;
   }
   else {
       Xrm.Page.getControl("new_websiteurl").clearNotification();
       //alertreq = false;
   }

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Nithya,

    For same code it was working fine means without domain it was not accepting but now it is again giving problem. It is throwing error for acceptable value also.

    Which regular expression do you use?

  • Alok Sharma Profile Picture
    Alok Sharma 340 on at

    i was using this regular exp. var URLvali = /(http|ftp|https):\/\/[\w-]+(\.[\w-]+)+([\w.,@?^=%&:\/~+#-]*[\w@?^=%&\/~+#-])?/;

    One of my frnd suggested me this : /\w+:\/\/\w+\.\w+/

    this new one is working fine now but for first time it is giving error either it right or wrong.

    when I'm again attempting then only it is working

    I'm using this code :

    // JavaScript source code

    function URLtest() {

       var testres = false;

       var URLvali = /\w+:\/\/\w+\.\w+/;

       var name = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_websiteurl").getValue();//nameeld where u want to check the special character

       if (name.match(URLvali)) {

           testres = true;      

       }

       else {

          testres = false;

       }

       if (testres == false) {

           Xrm.Page.getControl("new_websiteurl").setNotification("Website format should be in correct format");

       }

       else {

           Xrm.Page.getControl("new_websiteurl").clearNotification();

       }

    }

    Hi,

    Try to use test method instead of match method.

     if (URLvali .test(name)) {
       testres = true;      
   }

    Hope this helps.
