custom button to validate a single field

Hi there,

 

In short, I need a custom button (in edit mode). to validate one field.

I have managed to get a button onto the record edit page via a hack using 'home page components'.

(http://boards.developerforce.com/t5/General-Development/How-to-add-button-on-edit-page-without-overriding-with/td-p/327153)

 

I want to stay away from VF as there are multiple record types etc.

 

However I don't know how to get this button to validate a field on the record.

 

can anyone suggest how i'd modify this? At the moment it just opens Google.com.

 

•<script type="text/javascript">
var url = window.location.href;
window.onload = function () {
if(url.indexOf('/500')!=-1 && url.indexOf('/e')!=-1) 	
	document.getElementById('topButtonRow').innerHTML = 
					document.getElementById('topButtonRow').innerHTML + 
					'<a class="btn" style="padding: 4px 3px;margin: 0 2px;text-decoration: none;" target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com">Google.com</a>';
}
</script>

 

 

Thanks
