Hi Imar,
Somehow the form is still submitted without validation the textbox named "Add1" that I have pointed to it. The onclick event did work when i click on Add button to add the new info. Could you please see what went wrong? Thanks
Here the code:
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
function validForm()
{
var formField = document.form1.Add1;
If (formField.value == '')
{
alert('Name cannot be empty');
formField.focus();
return false;
}
return true;
}
</script>
