I have a select box that I am having some troubles with and cannot seem to
validate it. Can anyone see what I might be doing wrong? When I submit, it
simply inserts the value "" into the database.
I am building the select option here.
<CFSET APPLICATION.CONDITION="New,Mint,Excellent,Good,Fair,Poor,Refurbished">
And then building the select
<CFSELECT name="Condition" label="New or Used:" required="yes"
message="test">
<!---give our select an empty value for validation--->
<option value="" selected>Choose a condition..</option>
<CFLOOP index="i" list="#APPLICATION.CONDITION#"
delimiters=",">
<option value="#Trim(i)#">#Trim(i)#</option>
</CFLOOP>
</CFSELECT>
And then validating on submit
<CFIF not (Len(Trim(form.Condition))>
Do the error processing
</CFIF>
Display the error to the user
<CFIF not Valid>
<CFOUTPUT>
<center>
<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=3 cols=1 width="95%">
<tr>
<td class="bblackfont">Your submission has incomplete or invalid
fields. Please make the following changes.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="redfont"><ul>
#Error#
</ul></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="bblackfont">« <a
href="javascript:history.back()">Click here to return and correct</a> the
above listed error(s).</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
</CFOUTPUT>
</CFIF>
Thanks all !! )
