You're getting an error from your function because of the carriage return in
your alert message.
You need to use \n (or is it /n) to put a line break in an alert message.
This is probably killing off the exisitance of your function, so that the
call from the onBlur can't find it.

Subject: [ cf-dev ] confirm password value...
Hi
can't get this script to work at all. can anyone spare a moment?
this is the script, in the head of register.cfm
<script language="javascript">
function CheckValues() {
if (document.register.password1.value !=
document.register.password2.value) {
alert("The values for \'password\' and \'confirm pasword\' are
different.
Please make sure both fields are the same.");
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
}
</script>
this is the call, in an include called by that page
(includes/registration.cfm)
<tr>
<td align="right"><b>confirm password</b> <sup><font
color="red"><b>*</b></font></sup></td>
<cfif IsDefined("session.loggedin") AND session.loggedin IS 'yes'>
<td>
<input type="password" name="password2" size="15"
value="<cfoutput>#getuser.password#</cfoutput>" onBlur="CheckValues();">
<cfelse>
<td>
<input type="password" name="password2" size="15" onBlur="CheckValues();">
</cfif>
</td>
</tr>
I ge a js error 'object expected' when I click off the password2 field...
and while I'm at it, if the alert comes up I'd like to pull focus to the
password2 field and clear it's value, something like:
<script language="javascript">
function CheckValues() {
if (document.register.password1.value !=
document.register.password2.value) {
alert("The values for \'password\' and \'confirm pasword\' are
different.
Please make sure both fields are the same.");
return false;
document.register.password2.focus;
document.register.password2.value = '';
} else {
return true;
}
}
</script>
if you want to test it, go to http://test.artsoutheast.co.uk
choose 'register now'
choose a town from the drop-down
and you'll get the form I'm wibbling about ;-)
any help appreciared.
TIA
