[RESOLVED] Javascript only validating one field at a time in a multi field form!

my javascript code is only validating one field at a time (as in it validates on field then submits the form, instead of going through the entire thing and then returning it as true and submitting it…)

I’m not sure what to do to be honest, I’ve looked up google to no real avail..

my variables are declared in a seperate file to the actual even handlers and I have heaps of comments through out it, so please don’t judge lol i’m still learning ?
