It would be onsubmit="return validateZip();". I'd recommend NOT using cfforms and rolling your own JS. They tend to screw each other up and that could be something hard to debug for someone who admittedly isnt that great with JavaScript to begin with.

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:261583 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
