> Subject: client side validation to reduce overhead
>
> I have been using a servlet to perform the validation of the values
> entered by a user in a
> form. To reduce the overhead, I am trying to use client-side validation
> using Javascript.
> Is it possible to overcome the following problem:
> I have a form with several fields. Now, the action of this form is a
> script(servlet) that
> will take the values and add them to a table.
> out.println("<p><small><small><input type=\"submit\" value=\"Add
> Complaint\" name=\"Add\"
> onClick=\"chgcase()\">");
> I am performing clientside Javascript validation of the fields by using a
> function ( called
> on clicking the Sumbit button of the form). If there is a problem, an
> alert box is brought
> up telling the user what the error is, but if the user clicks on the OK
> button of the alert
> box, they are taken to the next page ( ie. the page mentioned in the
> action-servlet ). Any
> way to prevent this until no alert boxes are displayed.
> Thanks
