I’ve created my very first jQuery plugin. It’s fairly simple in that it simply verifies an input field’s value via AJAX after a short delay from the key up event handler. Put more simply, you can verify emails, URL’s, usernames, etc. directly as the user is typing them into the input box.
$(document).ready(function() {
url = '/verify.php';
options = {
verifying : "urlVerifying",
valid : "urlValid",
invalid : "urlInvalid"
};
$('#email').verify(url, option);
)}
This will, after a short delay, verify the value of the input with id="email"
. The script passes the value to the URI as /verify.php?value=foobar@example.com
. The script should then echo 1 for a valid value or 0 for an invalid value. See the example for more information.
I heard your going to be doing a presentation at LUGWASH. Maybe I’ll have to stop by and heckle you.
