Still can't get this damn Java to work! Anybody? by jmartinASSE 2005-03-08 15:24:28
Trying to check the form for valid fields before submitting. But, when I click submit, it runs the function, finds the error, displays the alert, but continues through to the next page. Can anybody help? Here are the main portions of the code.

Javascript -
function verify() {
var document=(window.document);
var regform=(document.reg);

if ((document.reg.template.value)== 0) {
alert("Please select a template");
document.reg.template.value.focus();
return false;
}
else {
return true;
}
}


body -
form name="reg" action="cgi-bin/formmail.pl" method="post" onSubmit="return verify()"


select name="template">
option value="0" selected>choose one</option
option value="1">Template #1</option
option value="2">Template #2</option
option value="3">Template #3</option


<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
