Form validation doesn't work

Hi,

I have many, many forms that use all of the different form validation
controls. These work great on my local server however I have just been
alerted to the fact that the form validation doesn't work at all on
the web server causing all sorts of differing problems.

I would assume that it has something to do with the JavaScript for the
client side form validation however this is as far as I get.

Any suggestions / solutions?

Many thanks, Brett

ASP.Net form validation ( with validator controls) validates the value at two places....1st on the client and on on the server on postback. So even if somebody has disabled JavaScript in the brouser....it will validate the at postback....You can safely use ASP.Net form validation using validator controls

Hi Avneesh,

Thanks for this (again). However it doesn't perform and validation on
the web server (either on the client side or the server side).

It works perfectly on my local machine at both client and server side
but not the remote server and it is not just one form but about 30.

Many thanks,

Brett

Dear PHP Group, I have two forms that are used to collect user information. The first one takes user inputted values such as fullname, city, address etc. I want these values to display in the second form when it is called. Both forms are .htm files that call themselves when the submit button is press via the following command in each form: <form method="post" action="<?php $server?>">

Hi, after coding for days on stupid form validations - Like: strings (min / max length), numbers(min / max value), money(min / max value), postcodes(min / max value), telefon numbers, email adresses and so on. I thought it might be a better way to programm an automated, dynamic form validation that works for all kinds of fields, shows the necessary error messages and highlights the coresponding form fields.

Hi, I am trying to provide some simple validation using Javascript on my form. However at times the validation works and at others it doesn't and submits the form without any warnings even though it contains invalid values. And sometimes it displays the warnings and submits the form! I'm really confused and don't know what else I can do (I want to provide the validation server-side)

My JavaScript Form Validation doesn't work at all in Netscape, but it works fine in IE. I made some of the suggested changes which enabled it to work in IE. I couldn't make all the changes because then it didn't work in IE. How can I enable this javascipt form validation to work in Netscape? When I use netscape, none of the alert boxes appear. It submits the form without validating anything.

Hi I hope someone can help me. I have a client side form validation script which works perfectly in IE but clicking "Submit" in Mozilla does nothing - the form won't submit. Is there something I can use that will work for both browsers, or is there something wrong with my code? I seem to think that the problem lies with the "onclick" area of the form. This is my code, such as it is... <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

I'm going back to a previous asp.net (C#) web project after a few months of inactivity and my first form, the login, won't submit. I ran with the debugger and still can't see how to resolve this.

Hi, I have a form for uploading documents and inserting the data into a mysql db. I would like to validate the form. I have tried a couple of Javascript form validation functions, but it appears that the data goes straight to the processing page, rather than the javascript seeing if data is missing and popping up an alert. I thought it may be because much of the form is populated with data from the db (lists, etc.), but when I leave...

Hello guys, now that I'm that I'm working on my first major 'open' forms (with uncontrolled users I mean, not a secure backend-interface), I'd like to add a lot of possibilities to check wether certain fields match certain criteria, and inform the user in different ways when the data is wrong (offcourse, this will be checked on posting the data again, but that's something I've got a lot of experience with). Now, offcourse it's...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
