Well that's different... if the Javascript is 'looping' over the form array as so:

<script language="javascript">
function check(){
fld = document.getElementById('test').value.length ;
alert(fld);
}
function loopForms(){
var frms = document.forms ;
for(a=0;a<frms.length;a++){
alert(frms.item(a).name);
   for(b=0;b<frms.item(a).elements.length;b++){
       frm = frms.item(a);
alert(frm.elements.item(b).value); }
}
}
</script>

And there isn't a check for the type, then the 'blanks' you're seeing are buttons.

it's implicitly referenced, i.e. the name of the element is being passed in as an enumerated value assigned to the type of validation subroutine I want to call for that element.

But by "by id" i guess that there needs to be an id="sameasname" in each form element...?? That could be the issue?

That's correct Javascript, assuming that fld = document.getElementById('the element you are referencing')

if (fld.value.length == 0) {


is that even right?
I thought it used to be fld.length or fld.text.length...??

Rolan,

I found this one that looked very easy to expand at

http://www.webcheatsheet.com/javascript/form_validation.php

However it is not picking up the blank fields...

I can try yours if you point me to it!

I need something that is extensible to handle the various types of input like emails, phone numbers, etc.
-- Kristina


which one are you using? FormChek.js is easy and hasn't let me
down
yet.
