The variable fieldName is something that I'am pulling in from
somewhere else. Here is the full code:
if(val == ''){
var fieldName = $("select[name='fieldcategoryID'] :selected").text();
$("#fieldValue label").fadeIn('slow', function (){
$(this).after("<span class='field-error'>You need to enter a "
+fieldName+" here.</span>");
});
return false;
//Send the data to the servers
}else{
What I would like to do is have the error message fade In above after
the label, if the person enters an empty value in to a input box. I'm
just unsure what the syntax order is for the fadeIn() and after()
methods.
Thanks for the help.
