I have been reading http://www.w3schools.com - www.w3schools.com which is a great site for learning I must say, but I can find any script help on the following: if I have two fields in my form "password" and "confirm_password", how do I make sure that what they typed into "confirm_password" is the same as the "password" field before proceeding on? Thanks. |

IF password = confirm_password THEN 'put everything into database ELSE 'handle the error END IF

That seems very easy. Just a few more questions. 1. Where does the above script go (form page, or posting page)? 2. 'put everything into database? How exactly do I do that, all I know is that the html script in the form takes care of that. 3. 'handle the error? I don't know how to do this. I know that in MS FrontPage you can set up automatic bots to create pop ups and move the cursor to the field that is incorrect, but I don't know how to manually create this script. Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks UltraMods. |

Hmm tricky and long to explain it all here...... Check out borgs inserting data into database tutorial: You might want to use javascript to check the passwords match instead of ASP scrpting, as its faster for the user to get the error and amend it, and takes up less server processing time. |
