Try the following for your two select fields:

if(document.form.sel1.value == 1){
        missinginfo += "\n - Please select option for Sel1";
        }

if(document.form.sel2.value == 1){
        missinginfo += "\n - Please select option for Sel2";
        }

Be sure and set up both Selects as follows for this to work:
<select name="sel1">
        <option value="1" SELECTED>Choose option for this select</option>
        <option value="2">Option2 Sel 2</option>
</select>
<select name="sel2">
        <option value="1" SELECTED>Choose option for this select</option>
        <option value="2">Option 2 Sel2</option>
</select>

I do not know what you are asking as far as your CFFILE question though.

Subject: Javascript Validation & Coldfusion ?


Hi

How do you add validation to drop down form select boxes using Javascript. I
have added validation (shown below in the js) for the two text input fields
but need to build in validation for the two select boxes and also a CFFile
field as these are required fields in the form, any ideas on how to
integrate this into what I have below?

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Begin
function checkFields() {
missinginfo = "";
if (document.form.filename.value == "") {
missinginfo += "\n - Title of the File Uploaded";
}
if (document.form.filesummary.value == "") {
missinginfo += "\n - Descriptive Summary of Uploaded File";
}

if (missinginfo != "") {
missinginfo ="
