Yep, I agree, like it away from inline, looks better for debuggin' too. Sure you all know this, but can re-use for every form if you use
onClick="Validate(this.form)" and function Validate(inForm) ... inForm.submit() But of course I'm teaching you al to suck eggs...... Can anyone explain that stupid saying??!!? -----Original Message----- From: Matt Horn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 21 October 2003 15:12 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] OT : Please wait button No I mean you should have a type = button and onclick="Validate();" and the last 3 lines of the validatrion function should be document.myForm.myButton.value='please wait'; document.myForm.myButton.disabled='true'; document.myForm.submit(); that way the form will submit if all validates correctly Some browsers (I cant remember which but I think IE5.0) will not submit if the submit button is disabled this solution takes the submitting away from the built in Submit() method of the type = submit and lets JS handle it seems a bit easier to control that way *shrug* I like it ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 21, 2003 4:06 PM Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] OT : Please wait button > > some browsers... like which ones?
