hey everyone,

I have a form script in PHP and it works well, but it does not validate the HTML Fields.

I found on a site a javascript validation, it works well in test mode, which is before it is sent to the PHP script to email.

I have the script starting like this for testing the javascript validator:

<form name=\"demo\" onsubmit=\"return validateFormOnSubmit(this)\" action=\"\">

without the validation I normally let the srcipt work.

<form method=\"post\" action=\"contact.php\">

How can I get the validation to work and when it is all valid, it automatically posts to the contact php?

within the javascript I have this piece of code:


if (reason != \"\") {
    alert(\"Some fields need correction:\n\" + reason);
    return false;
  }

  alert(\"All fields are filled correctly\"); //this is the part that says everything is done correctly
  return false;
}

I got it to work.....

I stupidly did not return it as true.

it now works very well, now to implement it to my clients.
