Anyways, I absolutely hare JS and suck at it's usage. I have a form I am trying to validate and no matter what, it the form field is not filled in, the damn thing submits anyhow. I have put the call to the function both in the form and the button control and still no go. What am I doing wrong? <SCRIPT language="JavaScript"> function validateZip(){ if (document.qSearch.zip.value == "") { alert("testing"); document.qSearch.zip.focus(); } return false; } </SCRIPT> <cfform name="qSearch" action="index.cfm?page=cresults#session.amper##session.URLTOKEN#" onsubmit="validateZip()"> <cfinput type="text" name="zip" value=""> <cfinput type="submit" name="qSearchSubmit" value="Search" class="sbutton" /> </cfform> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:261576 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
