Re: [nyphp-talk] Trapping JS errors in function called onSubmit

Amen to that -- Firebug is an immense help. Indispensable, even, if you are doing Ajax and need to inspect the stuff coming back at you. Too bad FF 2.x is such a prolifigate hog and waster of memory -- it's really killing me here on Fedora 7. On Tue, May 6, 2008 at 6:49 PM, Tim Lieberman <[EMAIL P

Re: [nyphp-talk] Trapping JS errors in function called onSubmit

Hi everyone -- thanks again for help and just wanted to let you know what the issue ended up being. If a label tag with for= is not used, then name= & id= must both be used inside the tag, as Javascript uses id & PHP uses name. -- Kristina > ed, > > it calls the subfunctions like so: >

Re: [nyphp-talk] Trapping JS errors in function called onSubmit

ed, it calls the subfunctions like so: reason += validateUsername(theForm.user_name); reason += validatePassword(theForm.pwd); reason += validateEmail(theForm.email1); reason += validatePhone(theForm.phone1); reason += validateEmpty(theForm.first_name); which appears to be OK > Well th

Re: [nyphp-talk] Trapping JS errors in function called onSubmit

Well that's different... if the Javascript is 'looping' over the form array as so: function check(){ fld = document.getElementById('test').value.length ; alert(fld); } function loopForms(){ var frms = document.forms ; for(a=0;a

Re: [nyphp-talk] Trapping JS errors in function called onSubmit

it's implicitly referenced, i.e. the name of the element is being passed in as an enumerated value assigned to the type of validation subroutine I want to call for that element. But by "by id" i guess that there needs to be an id="sameasname" in each form element...?? That could be the issue?

Re: [nyphp-talk] Trapping JS errors in function called onSubmit

That's correct Javascript, assuming that fld = document.getElementById('the element you are referencing') Kristina Anderson wrote: if (fld.value.length == 0) { is that even right? I thought it used to be fld.length or fld.text.length...?? Kristina Rolan, I found this one that loo

Rolan, I found this one that looked very easy to expand at http://www.webcheatsheet.com/javascript/form_validation.php However it is not picking up the blank fields... I can try yours if you point me to it! I need something that is extensible to handle the various types of input like emails,

Also: Firebug is your friend. Just set a breakpoint on the first line of your function, and step through. -Tim On May 6, 2008, at 4:25 PM, Kristina Anderson wrote: thanks!! will do. On Tue, May 6, 2008 at 5:59 PM, Kristina Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi everyone -- I'm try
