I don't believe so, as you have to set some qForms-specific JS code
before and after your <form></form> tags - and the qForms functions get
called automatically when the form submits.
I seem to have found a way around my problem, though. I'm using a var
'enterCheck' and setting it high when I *don't* want my homegrown
validation to kick - and surrounding that function with "if (enterCheck
== 0)" and then resetting enterCheck back to 0 at the end of that
function (to clear the deck, so to speak).
I picked up a function (thank you Google) for intercepting when return
is pressed, basically returning false if so - and added 'enterCheck=1'
just before the return-false bit. That way when my homegrown function
calls, it finds that var set high, skips past, resets.
I also added "onMouseDown='enterCheck=1'" into my submit button's
<input> tag. Since I'm using onMouseDown, that happens on the click of
the mouse, but before the mouse is released (which is when the form
submits). So I'm getting my enterCheck val set high prior to the form
submittal - and again, now that the email fields is blurred and my
validation kicks, it'll skip.
Seems to be working alright both with trying to submit via return and
submit via the submit button. My validation doesn't kick, just qForms.
But if I focus and blur the email field, my validation kicks as desired.
FYI the main reason I did my own validation using Ajax was so I could
tap my DB and see if the email address in the field was present in
another record (I pass along the table ID field value, either 0 for a
new record or the existing record's ID if it's an edit), so a user
doesn't have to get the "oh that email's already in use" message AFTER
submitting etc. Convenience factor thing. *shrug* And that works like a
champ.
