If you look at the docs for CFInput you will see OnError="" and OnValidate="" as optional fields. I just had to use these to modify the "Phone Number" validation of a CFInput box. Here's the scoop: When you use a CFInput it's doing Javascript, right? Well, they made this nifty little thing so that you can make it a little smarter. Here's an example (yes, I actually ran it to make sure it works: <script> function ExtraCheck(cForm, cObject, cValue) { if (cValue.length < 10) return false; else return true; } function MoveFocus(cForm, cObject, cValue, cErrorText) { alert(cErrorText); cObject.focus(); return false; } </script> <cfform name="testing" method="post" action="test.cfm"> Name: <cfinput type="Text" name="Name" message="Please enter your name" required="Yes" onError="MoveFocus"><br> Phone Number: <cfinput type="Text" name="PhoneNumber" message="Please enter your phone number" required="Yes" onValidate="ExtraCheck" onError="MoveFocus" maxlength="30"><br> Note: <cfinput type="Text" name="Extra" message="Please enter something else, at least 10 characters long" required="Yes" onValidate="ExtraCheck" onError="MoveFocus" maxlength="30"><br> <input type="submit" name="Process"> </cfform> <cfif IsDefined("Form.Process")> <cfoutput><hr> #Form.Name#<br> #Form.PhoneNumber#<br> #Form.Extra# </cfoutput> </cfif> Hatton -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 10:56 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: if anyone from macromedia is listening - cfinput request please make it so cfinput can do a focus() method for the field that is causing the exception. this is the only thing that prevents me from using the tag and having to do it in javascript.
