A good night's rest made me see that I did not have an id attribute on
the form element, just a name. My bad. That gets me sometimes when I
am referencing form fields.
By the way, the code is actually velocity, a little-known java
template language. It was part of a project we ended up using a few
years back and now we are stuck with it.

In the code you quoted, that line doesn't exist; this does:
Event.observe('fm', 'submit', checkReqFields, false);
I assumed at first that you were quoting the end result that went to
the browser rather than the PHP source code, but then noticed that
further down in the function you quoted, you _do_ have PHP source
code, which made me wonder... Did you accidentally replace $formName
with fm in your source, and are you now running with a different form
name? Not likely, but just checking.
If not that: You're sure that fm is the _ID_ of the form? E.g.,
form id='fm', not (for example) form name='fm'?
If that's not it, to continue troubleshooting, I'd suggest picking up
with #3 on this list:http://proto-scripty.wikidot.com/faq#xyzprob
(BTW, if you're using 1.6, Event#observe no longer has the fourth
parameter.)
FWIW HTH,

I am doing the following on one of my pages:
document.observe(dom:loaded, function() {
Event.observe('fm', 'submit', checkReqFields, false);
$('resetBtn').observe('click',resetForm);
#if(!$edit)
initForm();
#else
disableOther();
#end
});
The line:
Event.observe('$formName', 'submit', checkReqFields, false);
is causing an element is null error on page load. If I remove that
line, I don't get the error. The form that is referenced exists, the
function checkReqFields exists and the script is located after the
HTML, so all of the elements should exist before it is executed.
I do something very similar on another page and it works fine. Any
ideas as to what is causing this problem?
