Your previous button is a submit button - it's submitting the form so running the validation code. You need to use a button instead.
-----Original Message----- From: Priya Koya [mailto:priya23...@gmail.com] Sent: 14 May 2009 17:02 To: cf-talk Subject: cfform I have a quick question. I have a required radio button in the form with the <cfoutput> group up with the query: <cfform <cfoutput Query="Qry1" group="EmpName"> <cfinput type="radio" name="Prod1" value="#ID#" required="true" message="You need to select option"/>#EmpName# </cfoutput> <cfinput type="submit" name="btn_Previous" value="Previous"> <cfinput type="submit" name="btn_Submit" value="Continue"></td></tr> </cfform> <cfif Isdefined("form.btn_Submit")> <cflocation url ="addinfo.cfm" addtoken="no"> </cfif> <cfif isdefined("form.btn_Previous")> <cflocation url="index.cfm"> </cfif> I have the Previous button on that page and the continue button. If I click on the previous button it shows the alert message to select option. Is there anyways we can do that if we hit the previous button , it should not show alert even if we dont select the option and if we hit the continue button it should show an alert if option not selected.
