Re: [OT] javascript field validation with encoded forms
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2004
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 57595
interpreted = N
texte = This works for me:if (document[frm].first_name.value == ""){ alert("Please enter your first name"); document[frm].first_name.focus(); return (false);}However it's your enctype I'm sure. Are you doing a file upload with this form? I had all kinds of problems getting anything to work on a multipart/form-data so I went to two forms, info which is sent/appended and then a select file page. Not a great answer any of this, so hopefully someone has a better one.GKAt 10:21 AM 4/29/2004, you wrote:>I've been using some "borrowed" javascript to validate submitted forms >before they reach the browser.. something like:>>if (document[frm].first_name.value=="") {> alert('Please enter your first name')> document[frm].first_name.focus();> return false;}>>But as soon as I put this into my forms, the javascript no longer works.>>enctype="multipart/form-data">>Any ideas?>>Thanks,>~joe-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
