function validateForm() {
var x = document.forms["myForm"]["fname"].value;
if (x==null || x=="" {
alert("First name must be filled out";
return false;
}
}

You said you want to check for number in the string. What would you like to do if a number is found?
You can use 'parseInt()' or 'parseFloat()' here.
if (parseInt(x) != "" wink

{do something};
