I've a function that validate a form field:
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaS cript">
function CheckFields(For mSubmit,BtnName )
{
if (BtnName!="Canc el")
{
check = true;
if (FormSubmit.Use r_Account.value == ""){
alert ("Username compulsory");
FormSubmit.User _Account.focus( );
return false;
}....
My FORM:
<form action="<?php echo $editFormAction ; ?>" name="formSubmi t"
method="POST"> <!--form action myself-->
....
<input type="submit" name="SubmitBut ton" value="Add"
onClick="CheckF ields(this.form , this.value)">
<input type="submit" name="SubmitBut ton" value="Cancel">
Now, if I click on cancel, I do redirect (with PHP) to a previous page. If I
click on Add, a check is done on the compulsory fields. I would like the
focus on the selected field (the one that isn't right), but the form is
reloaded. How to avoid this ?
I've tried to put the check on the form.OnSubmit (that fires before I submit
the form, and set the buttons input type as "button" instead of "submit"),
instead of the button click (that does submit the form), but I can't
retrieve with button was pushed. (I've tried FormSubmit.Subm itButton.name,
but it doesn't work)
Please help.

Your event handler needs to *return* the value from CheckFields:
onClick="return Checkfields..."
Thanks Eric...it was that simple !!!

in case you have a lot of forms to implement
and a lot of rules to follow or fields to validate
you shoudl check out PEAR:HTML_Quick Form.
it also supports client-side validation via
auto-generated or customly written javascript
functions. http://pear.php.net/package/HTML_QuickForm This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

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 have run into a very strange scenario. In developing an ASP.NET
application on framework version 1.1, I found that certain client-side
validation scripts were not being rendered. The reason we came up with for
this was because we had a PageBase base class for all our pages. This base
class takes the controls on the child page class and places them onto the
form being rendered. It seems that in this process, the rendering of the...

Hello all!
As embarrassing as it is to admit this, I've been designing db driven
websites using javascript and vbscript for about 6-7 years now, and I
am *horrible* at form validation.
To be honest I usually hire someone to do it for me, grab predone
scripts and kind of hack out the parts that I need, or just do very
minimal validation (e.g. this is numeric, this is alpha-numeric, etc.)

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 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.
