Hi!
I'm using JavaScript on an HTML page for form validation. I have a
form value (theForm.ProdTy pe1) which represents a picklist from which
users may make multiple selections; essentially, this is a Select
object with the "multiple" attribute. There are 20 options to choose
from in this object; one of the options (we'll call it option X)
should NEVER be selected with any other option in the object. Let's
say that the user has selected two options, and one of the options is
option X; how can I alert the user that this is not allowed? I'm not
sure how to identify option X's value out of all the values that have
been selected by the user, if the user has made two or more selections
from the picklist.
Thanks!

Modify the HTML to correspond with the task that it is to perform. You
have one item that, if selected, excludes all others. That is a pair of
radio buttons: "The Item", or: "Choose Items From the List", the other
items go in the select list and the select list is ignored when the "The
Item" radio button is selected. Users will understand clearly designed
and labelled forms.

Hi,
I have a form with a select element with multiple="true". When using the
GET method (I suppose the same happens with the POST method) I can seen
that the form sends channels=CH1&channels=CH2 when CH1 and CH2 have been
choosen. $_GET gives me "CH2". Is there any way to get all
the choosen channels elements? I would be very appreciative for any
help. Thank you in anticipation.
Regards

I have a server-side ASP script that dynamically creates an input form from
a database table. The table contains a field name, the table where values
are stored, type of input control, value for a label, etc.
What I need to do is create a JS validation routine that will check each
control for valid input, regardless of what the control name is. If it is a
"select", it needs to verify the index is > 1. If it is an "input", it needs

Good evening all,
I'm a relatively new to javascript, but I've been working with
ColdFusion and PHP for years so I'm not necessarily ignorant, just
stuck and frustrated. Using ColdFusion I'm using an include to pull in
form elements (text fields, checkboxes, etc...) multiple times on a
single page.
The included page does not have a form tag of it's own, but the root
page has uniquely named forms for validation. Imagine it like this:

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...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

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,...
