This JavaScript is a "Word Filter". It is a type of form validator.
When the user submits some text, the validator will check the text for words that has to be filtered.
<br><br>The words that have to be filtered must be added to the array <font face="courier">swear_words_arr</font>. When the user types the text and hits the submit button, if the text contains any word that is present in the array <font face="courier">swear_words_arr</font>, the form will not be submitted.
<br><br>The script can be used for validation of swear words etc.
