Try this:

1.    change the tag that calls the function to onSubmit='return
CheckSubmit()'
2.    Replace CheckSubmit = false with the statement "return false"

I hope it works,

I know this is more vbscript versus javascript, but if anyone can help,
I'd appreciate it.

I have a form and want to test dome fields before I submit it.  I have s
function that is called from the 'OnSUBMIT' parameter of the FORM tag.
It calls the function correctly, but I am trying to get it to stop the
form processing.  Here is some of my code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE='VBSCRIPT'>
Function CheckSubmit()
msgbox "HI"
CheckSubmit = false
End Function
</SCRIPT>

<FORM ACTION='processaddmain.asp' METHOD=POST ONSUBMIT='CheckSubmit()'>

...

</FORM>

Anyone have any ideas as to why the 'CheckSubmit = false' is not
working?  I have also tried 'return false' in place of it, but that
gives me an error.  When I hit the submit button, it shows the msgbos,
then forwards to the next page.  I need it to stop. Any help would be
greaty appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Chris
