Menu
After years of writing javascript for intranet apps – I am now having to write a public web site.
A typical bit of form validation used in the onsubmit event of a form …
onsubmit=”return check(this)”
and in the function …
if (RegisterForm.AgencyName.value == ”)
{
RegisterForm.AgencyName.focus();
alert(‘Please enter the agency name’);
return false;
}
Works in IE and Firefox in that it detects that the field is empty and puts the alert up – but in Firefox the focus is not set on the correct field – it puts the focus back on the first field in the form.
How can you get this to work in Firefox?
Any help much appreciated.
