Your function (checkfield) must return true if it wants the anchor acted on.

Hi Jay,
I ran into a similar problem and I used your code below, but it does submit
the value in the <input > field but doesn't
fire the Javascript of onClick function. I wonder if I did something wrong.
Here is my code:
============
<script language="Javascript">
function checkfield()
{
if (document.forms[0].test.value =="")
{
alert ("You must enter a name.");
document.forms[0].test.focus();
return false;
}
}
</script>
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="test.cfm" method="post">
<a onClick="return checkfield()">
<input type="image" src="graphics/workorder_red.gif">
</a>
<br><br>
Name:<input name="test" value="">
</form>
</body>
</html>
===========================
