Does anyone know how to validate a form using two functions, one triggering
another?
I've got three forms that all contain the same fields, but then each one has
a couple of other fields as well. The onSubmit needs to trigger a specific
function and if that validation passes, it should then trigger the generic
form validation. The two functions work when called independently, but if
the first one validates OK, the form is submitted (ie the second function
doesn't seem to catch validation errors).
Something like this...
<SCRIPT SRC="/javascript/validateRegisterForm.js"...></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT SRC="/javascript/validateForm.js"...></SCRIPT>
<FORM ACTION="/cgi-bin/sendmail.asp" METHOD="post" onSubmit="return
validateEnrollmentForm(this);">
function validateEnrollmentForm(form) {
if (someCondition) {
alert("You forgot the x");
return false;
} else {
validateForm(form)
}
return true;
}
function validateForm(form) {
if (someCondition) {
alert("You forgot the y");
return false;
}
return true;
}
Thanks if you can help.
