a question for the JavaScript gurus...

Hi all,
Forgive me for asking this here... but I now a lot of knowledgeable people frequent the Milonic boards.
I might be reaching, but this does have something to do with the Milonic menu, as the form in question uses the menu to populate some very long "virtual" pull-down menus. (Andy assisted me with this a few years back.)
Anyway, I am also using a JS form validation script on this form...
This line will catch and give an alert if ANY of the characters submitted in "r_First" text field contains a comma:
Code:
if ( formobj.elements['r_First'].value.indexOf( "," ) != -1 )
How would I manipulate that line so that it would complain if there was NOT a comma included SOMEWHERE in the text field response?
(That is... "," is not the whole response... but it needs to exist somewhere in the submission.)
Thanks.
~Wayne

The value being returned is the position of the comma within the string.
Therefore if you get a minus one value the string has not been found, the following will fire if the comma is not found.
Code:
if ( formobj.elements['r_First'].value.indexOf( "," ) == -1 )
