Sorry folks a little off topic here, but I'm not good at javascript.
I have this email confirm code that tells me I need to enter a valid email, but
then still sends me to the next form which generates an error because of no
email address.
The problem seems to be in this section not stopping the submission so that the
user can enter a valid email
---------------------------
if (goodEmail){
good = true
} else {
alert('Please enter a valid e-mail address.')
field.focus()
field.select()
good = false
}
}
---------------------------
Any help appreciated.

The full code is below:
var good;
function checkEmailAddress(field) {
// Note: The next expression must be all on one line...
// allow no spaces, linefeeds, or carriage returns!
var goodEmail =
field.value.match(/\b(^(\S+@).+((\.com)|(\.net)|(\.edu)|(\.mil)|(\.gov)|(\.org)|(\..{2,2}))$)\b/gi);
if (goodEmail){
good = true
} else {
alert('Please enter a valid e-mail address.')
field.focus()
field.select()
good = false
}
}
function sendOff(){
checkEmailAddress(document.TheForm.email)
if ((document.TheForm.email.value ==
document.TheForm.email2.value)&&(good)){
// This is where you put your action
// if name and email addresses are good.
// We show an alert box, here; but you can
window.location= 'http://192.29.16.25/oclc/forms/oclc_3.cfm'
// to call a subsequent html page,
// or a Perl script, etc.
// alert("Name and email address fields verified good.")
}
if ((document.TheForm.email.value !=
document.TheForm.email2.value)&&(good)){
alert('Both e-mail address entries must match.')
}
}
