OK, so I gave up on the Spry version of the database validation and moved onto
AJAX (a language I really don't know a lot about but I am slowly figuring it
out). Anyway, I have the code working the way I want with the exception that
when the validation is done, whether the code is valid or not, the page is
reloading and showing an overlay or something of the page. If you go to
http://www.makeaherodonations.com/themovement/ you'll see what I am talking
about. It's weird and I have been trying to figure this out. Here is the script:
<script src="js/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
pic1 = new Image(16, 16);
pic1.src = "images/loader.gif";
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#orgname").change(function() {
var usr = $("#orgname").val();
if(usr.length >= 2)
{
$("#status").html('<img align="absmiddle" src="images/loader.gif" /> Checking
Code...');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "checkcode.cfm",
data: "orgname="+ usr,
success: function(msg){
$("#status").ajaxComplete(function(event, request, settings){
if(msg == 'OK')
{
$("#orgname").removeClass('object_error'); // if necessary
$("#orgname").addClass("object_ok");
$(this).html(' <img align="absmiddle" src="images/accepted.png" /> ');
}
else
{
$("#orgname").removeClass('object_ok'); // if necessary
$("#orgname").addClass("object_error");
$(this).html(msg);
}});}});}
else
{
$("#status").html('The Code should have at least 2 characters.');
$("#orgname").removeClass('object_ok'); // if necessary
$("#orgname").addClass("object_error");
}});});
//-->
</script>
I think that I'll have to head to the bookstore tomorrow and get me an AJAX
book. It seems pretty cool and something that I can use in the future.
