Yay! It works! Thanks, Paul!
Now that that's over... besides the code that your repaired in the
javascript, I found I had another issue that didn't show up until
after the code was repaired... I had the page I was calling
*IN THE WRONG FOLDER*!!!!!! AAAAARRRRRRGGGG!
How stupid...
Anyway... no I need to figure out how to modify the code
to get it to work for each form field. There's a total of three
in this small Mortgage Calculation form.
You mentioned "abstracting" the code for more inputs... I assume
that would mean modifying these two lines of the javascript, right?
$("#Principal").blur(function(){ //assign a blur event to the input
$.post("callpage_Validate_Mortgage_Inputs.cfm",
{principal:$("#Principal").val()}, function(data){
I really don't have any idea how to code that. Would you care to offer
a little more assistance on that? I would try first...I'm really not trying
to impose...
but I don't have a clue where to start.
I would have never figured out the syntax that you used in the javascript.
I guess that's probably the hardest of learning to use any language.
I had actually gotten validation with Jorn's plug-in to work well, but ran
into
limitations, and I figured I'd be better off trying to validate with a
language
I know better... CF.
Thanks so much for your help!

Rick, with modifications below this works for me. If you need to make it
more abstract (i.e., for more than one text input) you can start from here
and add a piece at a time--I always find it easier to debug using a
functioning version to start rather than starting from errors and working
backwards...
Hope it helps convince you to stick with jQuery -- after a short learning
curve it makes life SO much simpler!
