when you use cfform, cf automatically creates a js function named _CF_Check[your cfform's NAME attribute value] to validate your form, and adds the onsubmit attribute to the form tag. i guess it overwrites any onsubmit you put in the tag while doing this... one way i managed to have custom validation work with cfform is to NOT use a SUBMIT button, but a regular button that fires off a custom validation js function and calls submit() at the end if the form validates. if you ALSO want to use cf's built-in validation alongside your custom validation, just call the _CF_Check[you form's name] function at the end of your custom validation function - iirc the cf's autogenerated js validation already includes the submit() part...
