Hey all,
I am working on some form validation and all works fine except on point.
what I am trying to do is check if an email address is already in the
database, I get the connection and the function gets a return but I can't
get the return to return true.
Not sure if this making sense so here is the code.
function isAjaxCheckEmail(str){
try{
var args;
if(isCD){ // this is a variable that is set to true if the site
is on a cd
return false;
}
else{
// this is my post to an asp page, below this code is what is being returned
$.post('ajax.asp', { value: str },
function(json) {
eval("var args = " + json);
if (args.success == "true"){
alert('true');
return true;
}
else
{
alert('false');
return false;
}
});
}
}
catch(e){}
}
the alerts execute, but the returns don't.
returned from ajax.asp
"{""success"": ""true"", ""msg"": ""all good"}"
any direction would be greatly appreciated.
