Read SMS Messages on a bigpond 4G 760s

Login to the Aircard using Putty on the Aircard's COM port
(from a whirlpool post)

If you don't mind the inconvenience of AT commands, put the 760S into text-mode:

AT+CMGF=1
(this needs doing every time the modem has been reset, eg. by power cycling). The default is PDU-mode (as received, encoded in hex).

Then read all messages:
AT+CMGL="ALL"

Finally, you'll need to eventually clean them up (individually) to make room for more – eg:
AT+CMGD=2
where the 2 is the number of the message you want to delete – you'll see those numbers in the read command.

The easiest way to clean out all messages is one command with flags. E.g:
AT+CMGD=0,4
In this case flag 4 ignores all indexes and deletes everything in all stores including both recieve & sent. Flags 0 to 3 are more selective.

Javascript Form Validation

It's real simple. All you need to do is call a javascript function in a html  " onsubmit " in the form tag as a javascript return, like this       <form method="post" action="dosomething.php" onsubmit="return validateForm();"> If the code completes ok, the form is then sent to the page listed in "action" http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_form_validation.asp If the function specified in the onsubmit returns false, then the form is not sent to the page mentioned in action.
