John,
Thanks much for that information. It would be of
great help to me if you can provide me with some
sample scripts that will do these functions.!
Of course I'd like to add more robustness to my
script.! But, I don't know how to :(
Looking for your help
Bhanu.
I would do this using javascript within the form. Then
when the field loses
focus you can validate it. This means the form doesn't
have to be submitted
before the user is alerted of a problem.
For extra robustness you can also validate the
submitted results in the perl
script and return the user to the form with highlights
on what is
wrong/missing.
HTH
John

Subject: [Q] Validating Forms?!
HI All,
Is there a way to Validate the fields of a
form? Say I have a
text field, and I should show an error to the user if
he does not enter
anything while submitting the form?
Thanks for the help
Bhanu.
