Hello folks,
I am in need of some enlightenment here with an issue that has me
stumped. I have a from validation script that I use in several forms in
a small personnel editor I built. In one particular page this script is
not firing and I cannot for the life of me see why it's not. The one
thing that seems to somehow play a part in this scenario is a session
variable I set at login: SESSION.Auth.UserRole, this gets set to 1 or 2.
1 is a basic rights level, 2 is full rights. The only place I actually
use this is where I display a set of links to various functions within
the editor. Below is the basic set up for this:
<cfif SESSION.Auth.UserRole IS '2'>
Change my password <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.changepassword">Change password
now.</a><br />
Add a New Web Administrator <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.showwebadminform">Add New</a>
<a href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.showwebadmins">View All</a><br />
Registered IP Addresses <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.viewipaddresses">View in web</a> or <a
href="domis/admin/actGetIPXLS.cfm">as an Excel file</a>.<br />
All Faculty Members <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.addfaculty">Add New</a> <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.getallfaculty">Edit/Delete</a><br />
All Administative Staff <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.addadminpersonnel">Add New</a> <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.getalladministration">Edit/Delete</a><br
/>
All Nursing Staff <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.addnursing">Add New</a> <a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.getallnursing">Edit/Delete</a>
<cfelse>
<span style="font-weight:bold">Faculty
Members</span>
<a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.addfaculty&division=#SESSION.Auth.Division
#">Add New</a>
<a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.getfaculty&division=#SESSION.Auth.Division
#">Edit/Delete</a> <br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">Administrative
Personnel</span>
<a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.addadminpersonnel&division=#SESSION.Auth.D
ivision#">Add New</a>
<a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.getadminpersonnel&division=#SESSION.Auth.D
ivision#">Edit/Delete</a><br />
<span style="font-weight:bold">Nursing
Staff</span>
<a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.addnursing&division=#SESSION.Auth.Division
#">Add New</a>
<a
href="#self#?fuseaction=admin.getnursing&division=#SESSION.Auth.Division
#">Edit/Delete</a><br />
</cfif>
The actions for addadminpersonnel and addnursing load the same form with
some conditional stuff for preloading the form if the action is "edit"
.... yada yada yada.
My script is in the head as shown below:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="application/xhtml+xml;
charset=utf-8" />
<title>Add Member</title>
<script type=text/javascript>
function validateForm() {
var allOk = true;
var errorString = "The following are required
fields:\n";
// require first name
if (!document.addmember.First_Name.value) {
allOk = false;
errorString += "\n- First Name";
}
// require last name
if (!document.addmember.Last_Name.value) {
allOk = false;
errorString += "\n- Last Name";
}
// require a division before processing the
request
if (!document.addmember.Division.selectedIndex >
0) {
allOk = false;
errorString += "\n- Division";
}
// validate their email
var validEmail =
/^([a-zA-Z0-9_\.\-])+\@(([a-zA-Z0-9\-])+\.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})+$/;
if
(!validEmail.test(document.addmember.Email.value)) {
allOk = false;
errorString += "\n- Email Address";
}
if (!allOk)
{
alert(errorString);
return false;
}
return allOk;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<cfoutput>
Trimmed this down but I think you get the idea ...
<cfif IsDefined('fuseaction') AND fuseaction IS
'admin.editadminpersonnel'>
<cfset First_Name = getpersonnel.First_Name />
<cfelseif IsDefined('fuseaction') AND fuseaction IS
'admin.editnursing'>
<cfset First_Name = getnurse.First_Name />
<cfelse>
<cfset First_Name = "" />
</cfif>
<form action="#self#?fuseaction=#XFA.submitForm#" name="addmember"
method="post" onsubmit="return validateForm(this);">
<input type="text" name="First_Name" size="30"
maxlength="75" value="#First_Name#" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="#ButtonText#" />
This just blows past my validation script and can't see why as this same
script is working just fine setup in pretty much the same way, just a
much larger form. Like I mentioned before, the only thing that seems to
be related is SESSION.Auth.UserRole. Email me off list if needed.
TIA!
