submitForm88(); function does NOT executed , why ? If I put an alert like
onsubmit="alert('called function')"executed[success], well ?

<form action="contact-webmaster-processor.php" method="post" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" name="webmaster" target="_self" class="text_normal" id="webmaster" onsubmit="return submitForm88();" onreset="return confirm('Are you sure to reset form ?')">

in head as js file include

function submitForm88()   //  (document.webmaster)
{ 
  alert("submitForm() called");  // var f = form;
  if (document.getElementById['message'].value == "") { 
   alert("Error: Message cannot be blank!"); 
   document.getElementById['message'].focus(); 
   return false; 
  } 
  if (document.getElementById['email'].value == "") { 
   alert("Error: Username(email) cannot be blank!"); 
   document.getElementById['email'].focus(); 
   return false; 
  }  
  var retemplate0 = /^([a-zA-Z0-9_\.\-])+\@(([a-zA-Z0-9\-])+\.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})+$/; // /^[a-z0-9]+([-_\.]?[a-z0-9])+@[a-z0-9]+([-_\.]?[a-z0-9])+\.[a-z\.]{2,4}/;   // gosselin p.347
  if (!retemplate0.test(document.getElementById['email'].value)) {   //  
   alert("Error: Username must contain only letters, numbers, dash, dot, underscores(first part) and the 'at' sign!");    // @
   document.getElementById['email'].focus(); 
   return false; 
  }
}

Use (' and '), not [' and '].

Here, try this:

function submitForm88()   //  (document.webmaster)
{ 
  alert("submitForm() called");  // var f = form;
  if (document.getElementById('message').value == "") { 
   alert("Error: Message cannot be blank!"); 
   document.getElementById('message').focus(); 
   return false; 
  } 
  if (document.getElementById('email').value == "") { 
   alert("Error: Username(email) cannot be blank!"); 
   document.getElementById('email').focus(); 
   return false; 
  }  
  var retemplate0 = /^([a-zA-Z0-9_\.\-])+\@(([a-zA-Z0-9\-])+\.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})+$/; // /^[a-z0-9]+([-_\.]?[a-z0-9])+@[a-z0-9]+([-_\.]?[a-z0-9])+\.[a-z\.]{2,4}/;   // gosselin p.347
  if (!retemplate0.test(document.getElementById('email').value)) {   //  
   alert("Error: Username must contain only letters, numbers, dash, dot, underscores(first part) and the 'at' sign!");    // @
   document.getElementById('email').focus(); 
   return false; 
  }
}

<form action="contact-webmaster-processor.php" method="post" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" name="webmaster" target="_self" class="text_normal" id="webmaster" onsubmit="submitForm88();" onreset="return confirm('Are you sure to reset form ?')">

document.getElementById is a function not an array or something like that.
