/**
 * A JavaScript function to set the validation requirements for a form element.
 *
 * @param {String} obj The name of the HTML form element.
 * @param {String} descr A textual description of the HTML form element.
 * @param {Boolean} req If the HTML form element must be filled in (true), or
 *                      if it may be left empty (false).
 * @param {String} check What kind of validation needs to be performed on the
 *                       HTML form data. Possible values are:
 *                       - url:              Ensure the element is a valid URL.
 *                       - email:            Ensure the element is a valid email
 *                                           address.
 *                       - number:           Ensure the element is a non-negative
 *                                           integer.
 *                       - number+{String}:  Ensure that the element is a non-
 *                                           negative integer, which is greater
 *                                           than integer {String}.
 *                       - formattedNumber:  Ensure the element is a valid,
 *                                           non-negative formatted integer.
 *                       - float:            Ensure the element is a non-negative
 *                                           float.
 *                       - float+{String}:   Ensure that the element is a non-

 *                                           than float {String}.
 *                       - formattedFloat:   Ensure the element is a valid,
 *                                           non-negative formatted float.
 *                       - compare:{String}: Ensure the element is identical to
 *                                           the form element {String}.
 *                       The parameter can also be left null, in which case no
 *                       validation needs to be performed (i.e. all that is
 *                       required is that the element needs to be filled in, if
