Form-level onSubmit handler

[Snowbank Jim]

When I invoke RegisterOnSubmitStatement, my script is inserted prior to the page validation invocation inserted by DotNet. In this case, my script needs to run only if all client-side validation is successful. It blocks multiple submits, and alters the submit button to give the user some visual feedback that the submit occurred

How can I change the order in which the scripts execute, including those inserted by DotNet

Thanks in advance for your help

you can't, but your script can call the validator code itself, to decide
whether to run.

I thought of that too, but the ValidatorOnSubmit function doesn't have a return value.

Hi Jim,

I have a solution for you. My product, "Professional Validation And More",
was created to overcome the many limitations of Microsoft's validation
framework. In your case, it's page submit event handler supports the
following:
1. You can hook in your own javascript just by setting a property.
2. You can tell it to put up a confirmation message box that can cancel page
submission.
3. You can dictate the desired order of events between validation, confirm
message, and your script handler.

You will find that Professional Validation And More has tremendous
improvements to validation, saving you time from custom coding and hacks.
