RE: Can CF generate a Pop-up Window w/o Javascript?????
Hi jenny, the form validations will workout as u said but it is, when only one submit button is on the form. wat to do? if two submit buttons on the form in which two serves differently , i mean one for form submission and another is to see anything like history of earlier visits suppose. So if we want to write form validations on that form it executes no matter which button you clicked but my purpose is form validate when and only the submit button is clicked and not other button. how can we execute form validations when two submit button are on the form?? Please let me know wat should i do?? thanx in advance regards nagesh -Original Message- From: Jenny Anderson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 09, 2000 12:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Can CF generate a Pop-up Window w/o Javascript? -Original Message- From: Richard Fascianella [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Hello, I joined this list with the hope someone can help me with an issue I am having. I need to find out if CF can be used to generate a pop-up browser window WITHOUT the use of javascript. What I am trying to do is validate a form, and have a pop-up box appear when a field is not filled out, Just use the CFINPUT, CFSELECT, etc tags. Example: CFINPUT TYPE="text" name="phone" size="10" maxlength="10" Required="yes" Message"You need to enter a phone number" Validate="telephone" If you look at it, it should be pretty self-explanatory. The "required" atribute of the tag is either yes or no. The "message" attribute of the tag is the text that appears in the pop-up window and the "validate" attribute of the tag will tells what kind of information should be in the field. Cold Fusion does the rest for you and generates the javascript. :o) A good source, Forta's ColdFusion 4.0 book, pages 825-826, 851. or when a field is a duplicate (using SQL to check for dupes), informing the user of such. I've done this on my pages through the action page for my forms. I run a query first to see if there is a record for it already in the database. I use #queryname.RecordCount# in my CFIF statement. If it comes back as zero I insert the new record, or if it comes back as 1 I ask the user if they want to do an update and then pass to another action page that has an update query.

Re: Can CF generate a Pop-up Window w/o Javascript?????
Uh oh.. err..could you try it with Internet Explorer and see if you get the same error? Also could you try sending to USER: me message : test email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (should display user not found etc. etc. in the pop up window) I'd like to know if for some reason having spaces in those fields is a problem for some browsers/proxy servers or something. I can't think why you would be getting that error. -Gel - Original Message - From: Brett Payne-Rhodes [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: cf-talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 09, 2000 1:14 AM Subject: Re: Can CF generate a Pop-up Window w/o Javascript?

Re: Can CF generate a Pop-up Window w/o Javascript?????
If you're in a pure windows environment, maybe yes with ActiveX In a pure web way -- no. That IS what JavaScript is for. on 6/5/00 6:21 AM, Richard Fascianella at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I joined this list with the hope someone can help me with an issue I am having.

RE: Can CF generate a Pop-up Window w/o Javascript?????
No can do. In order to get the pop-up window, you need a Server-side language of which JavaScript is probably the best for your purposes. ColdFusion is a server-side technology meaning that all of it's code is executed on the server before a page is sent to a user. Because of this, ColdFusion has no dynamic capability on the user's computer (meaning it can't dynamically validate form fields, etc.) HOWEVER, don't lose heart. If you just don't want to write the JavaScript, ColdFusion can do that for you to facilitate form validation. All you need to do is either use CFFORM elements or embedded HTML form validation. The latter is pretty simple. All you do is create a hidden input field corresponding to each INPUT field. The names for these hidden fields are then appended with validation rule suffixes. Here's an example: If I want to require a text field is completed is first create that text field: INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Field1" Then, I create a hidden form field with the appropriate validation rule suffix: INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="Field1_required" VALUE="Field1 is required" Here, the VALUE parameter specifies the error message displayed if the rule is violated. Other validation rule suffixes are: _integer _range _time _date _eurodate _float This will cause CF to generate appropriate JavaScript code to do the validation. If you want more information on this, get Ben Forta's first book. Jesse D.

The only thing that CF does (please excuse the slight understatement) is generate ASCII text. This text can contain HTML, JavaScript, literal text, CSS, DHTML, and lots of other stuff. Making boxes pop up, or doing anything at all in the browser for that matter, requires the use of some technology that the browser knows what to do with; you can use CF to generate the text that the browser uses, but what the browser does with that text doesn't have anything to do with CF. The browser doesn't even know anything about CF; all it knows is that it made a URL request, and got back some text.
