External Javascript Linking

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 14.2006

Okay, I’m trying to link a form submit button to an outside javascript function to validate the correct information(login and password form, to a hidden validation script) but it never seems to work. If anyone knows what I’m doing wrong, I’d appreciate any help I can get, including other ideas, but I’ve already tryied CGI and Perl, but the webhost does not have server-side capabilities.

@bathurst_guyFeb 14.2006 — Are you including the JavaScript file in the head of the document,

<script type="text/javascript" src="link/to/file.js"></script>

I can't help much more without seeing the page

@Drew06authorFeb 14.2006 — Yeah I've got my link to javascript in the head section, but I added a validate function onclick the submit button, so maybe I have to link it then?

@bathurst_guyFeb 15.2006 — you should just call the function

<input type="submit" onClick="validate();">

or something similar

Success!
