Hi All,
I'm looking for a simple fix if you have any suggestions...
All I want to do is force new registrants to fill in a few extra of the register form fields.
I have tried using javascript (that is tried and tested on other forms I use) but I can't get it to work with all the fields in the register.asp file.
It quite happily forces entries for realName and the Email address but not for any of the other fields further down the form...
On hitting submit with an incomplete form (say occupation isn't filled in) I would expect a javascript alert requesting the field be completed, but instead the user is registered fine. Does the javascript not run first being on the client? or is it somehow overridden by the asp?
Either alternatives to the javascript or a pointer what I might be doing wrong would be much appreciated!
Also...
My javascript works perfectly if you "update profile" just not when you register.
as an afterthought...
at the top of the form in register.asp I have:
<form method="post" name="frmRegister" action="register.asp?FID=0" onsubmit="return validateForm(this)" onReset="return confirm('Are you sure you want to reset the form?');">
and at the bottom:
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Register" onClick="return CheckForm();" />
There would seem to be a conflict here no? Can I run my javascript verification - validateForm(), first then call CheckForm() from within it?
