validate name field in contact for

Hi to everybody!
we have our contact form redesigned by a coder, he is not available right now so we need your help on this slight issue..
the contact form works perfeclty. it validates every filed.. the problem is that the "name" field does not accept any blank space, so if you enter your first name its okey, but if you try to enter name + surname it gives error as if the name was wrong..
can someone help us with that?
here is the validation code..
Code:

function isAlphanumeric(elem, helperMsg){
var alphaExp = /^[0-9a-zA-Z]+$/;
if(elem.value.match(alphaExp)){
return true;
}else{
alert(helperMsg);
elem.focus();
return false;
}
}

function isAlphabet(elem, helperMsg){
var alphaExp = /^[a-zA-Z]+$/;
if(elem.value.match(alphaExp)){
return true;
}else{
alert(helperMsg);
elem.focus();
return false;
}
}

You could try adding -
\s
after the uppercase Z on each of the lines starting "var"

I'm not really sure if "better impossible" means it fixed it or not! :-)
No, coding's not my thing. I struggle to do my own stuff but that's about it!

Create a new function with the expression:
var alphaExp = /^[a-zA-Z ]+$/;
It should cover spaces.
Peace,
