Second form validation problem

John

Hi

I have two forms on my page. Both use javascript to validate input before
submission. Problem is that first form does the validation fine but the
second form gets submitted without any validation taking place. Simplified
form of code is given below.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
function validate()
{
// validation code here, which works fine
}

function valid1()
{
f=document.getElementById("Form1");
if(f.StaffCode.value<>"HS01")
{
alert("Invalied code. Please re-enter.");
f.StaffCode.focus();
return false;
}
}

// ]]>

There is a grammar error of javascript£º

if(f.StaffCode.value<>"HS01")
=>
if(f.StaffCode.value != "HS01")
