Hi
I have a form with, where a validation scripts checks wether fields are filled by the user. This works perfect in IE 6.0 - but NOT in
Firefox - and I guess not in IE 70

If I change the input type to 'submit' when the Form submits with Firefox but the validation script is not executed , and form is posted without all the nessary data.
Please someone out there ...HELP - I need somebody help - just anaybody Help...

best wishes - Otto

Hi there,

You are using VBScript which is NOT supported by Firefox. In fact, it's only supported by IE.

Search Google for JavaScript validation and you'll find plenty results showing you how to proceed with JavaScript.

Feel free to post here with any follow up questions, although the JavaScript category here at p2p.wrox.com would probably be a better place to post.

Cheers,

Imar
