Hi all,
Having tried a few validation plugins, none can do exactly what I want
(given the time I have to spend on it), so I'm doing it the manual way,
but I can't figure out how to turn my repititions into a function. I
have this;
//validation for forms
$('#admin-quotes').submit( function(){
var inputcheck = $("#person");
// if field has something in it, do submit actions, otherwise write
out error
if( inputcheck.val() == '' ){
// add class to change colour
inputcheck.addClass("required").get(0).focus();
return false;
}else{
inputcheck.removeClass("required");
}
var inputcheck = $("#position");
// if field has something in it, do submit actions, otherwise write
out error
if( inputcheck.val() == '' ){
// add class to change colour
inputcheck.addClass("required").get(0).focus();
return false;
}else{
inputcheck.removeClass("required");
}
});
and obviously it's ripe for a function like;
function simplecheck(fieldid){
var inputcheck = $(fieldid);
// if field has something in it, do submit actions, otherwise write
out error
if( inputcheck.val() == '' ){
// add class to change colour
inputcheck.addClass("required").get(0).focus();
return false;
}else{
inputcheck.removeClass("required");
}
}
But I can't get the right combinations of return true/false and calling
the fuction to work whereby the form does the same with a function as it
does with the 'manual' checking. Can anyone forge it into something that
works?
TIA!
