I use the following to determine if a field is blank and to alert them the field is required:

if (Form1.FieldName.value == "")
  {
    alert("Please enter a value for the  FIELDNAME field.");
    Form1.FieldName.focus();
    return (false);
  }

How can I use a LIKE type of statement so if they use a word we cannot allow such as "Stupid", I can advise them the word is not permitted?
