Try it this way:
Event.observe('form', 'submit', function (evt) { // Added function param
Event.stop(evt); // Stop propogation;
return (
check_first_name() && check_last_name() &&
check_username() && check_password() && check_password_confirm()
);
});
Returning false only works if the function is directly set as the
event handler, rather than being attached/observed (i.e. $
('form').onsubmit = function() {return false;}, although using
Event.stop() is not in appropriate in this instance, although you'd
also need to bindAsEventListener() or implement some other cross-
browser method of getting the event.
I hope my ramblings make sense.
