Question

I am looking to display my input validation in a div instead of an alert. I currently have

//check for COGs to be a number
        if (isNaN($("#txtCOGs").val())) {
            alert("The Cost of Goods Sold must be a number");
            $("#txtCOGs").focus();
            return false;
        }

I am trying to place it in the div

<div id="divError">

Advice?

Answer 1

//check for COGs to be a number
        if (isNaN($("#txtCOGs").val())) {
            $("#divError").text("The Cost of Goods Sold must be a number");
            $("#txtCOGs").focus();
            return false;
 }

With this HTML code:

<div id="divError"></div>
