I am having some trouble with some of my javascript
Well my code works within
<script></script> tages
But when I put them in <Cfscript></cfscript> tags it doesn't here is the
code:
A couple functions I use throughouit my app::
<cfscript>
alert("Invalid SSN");
window.parent.document.forms[0].SSN.select();
</cfscript>
<cfscript>
window.parent.document.forms[0].first.value = '#firstname#';
window.parent.document.forms[0].last.value = '#lastname#';
</cfscript>
<cfscript>
alert("Invalid SSN Format");
window.parent.document.forms[0].SSN.select();
</cfscript>
<script>
function ConfirmSSN(sSSN)
{
document.all.WorkFrame.src = "confirmSSN.cfm?SSN=" + sSSN;
}
function enterinfo()
{
document.employee.lastname.value = retlname;
document.employee.firstname.value = retfname;
}
</script>
I thought that the syntax between javascript and cfscript was pretty
much interchangeable?? What is my problem???
Please help!
Thanks

Actually, dependant upon the application, I could see a situation where
it might be beneficial to take the contents of a single input field and
pass or submit them to an action page in the onblur() event of the
field, thus making allmost all visible content always current, and
eliminating the need for a submit or save button.
The only drawbacks are that it makes "undo" a little unwieldy and has
the potential to drastically increase bandwidth and server resource
usage as a result of sending dozens if not hundreds or thousands of page
requests for such a tiny amount of data.
But the idea is interresting and possibly viable, given circumstance.
