Form Validation Not Working

I'm trying to make a simple Form Validation so the Form shows errors

This is my code:

function postregform(frm) {

 var emailPattern = /^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$/;   

  if (frm.name.value='') { 
     $('#error-container2').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);   
       $('#error-container3').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container4').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container5').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container6').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
    $('#error-container7').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
   $('#error-container').delay.(200).animate({'top' : '4px'}, 400);
      $('#error-container').delay(3700).animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 400);
   return false; 
  }
  if (frm.email.value=='') { 
    $('#error-container').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);   
       $('#error-container3').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container4').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container5').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container6').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
    $('#error-container7').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
    $('#error-container2').delay(200).animate({'top' : '4px'}, 400);

    return false;

                            }
   if (! emailPattern.test(frm.email.value)) {

      $('#error-container3').delay(3700).animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 400);                    
     return false;
                                               }
       if (frm.textarea.value=='') {

    return false;
                           }
        if (frm.textarea.value.length < 10) { 
          $('#error-container').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);   
       $('#error-container3').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);

                          }
       if (frm.textarea1.value.length < 10) { 
         $('#error-container').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);   
       $('#error-container3').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container4').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container5').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container2').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
    $('#error-container7').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
         $('#error-container6').delay(200).animate({'top' : '4px'}, 400);
      $('#error-container6').delay(3700).animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 400);           
    return false;
                           }
       if (frm.tooln.value.length < 10) { 
        $('#error-container').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);   
       $('#error-container3').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container4').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container5').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
        $('#error-container6').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
    $('#error-container2').animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 100);
         $('#error-container7').delay(200).animate({'top' : '4px'}, 400);
      $('#error-container7').delay(3700).animate({'top' : '-70px'}, 400);           
    return false;
                           }
    }

And I got the onSubmit="return postregform(this)" setup in the form tag and it worked at first but now it is not. Can someone please help me?

Thanks, Shawn

This might be at least one of the problems if (frm.name.value='') { (hint just one = instead of two ==) but boy I only see noodles when I look at your code :)

There has to be a way to make the code look cleaner and more readable :)
