Do you think something like this would work? onerror=handleErr var txt="" function handleErr(msg,url,l) { txt="There was an error on this page.\n\n" txt+="Error: " + msg + "\n" txt+="URL: " + url + "\n" txt+="Line: " + l + "\n\n" txt+="Click OK to continue.\n\n" alert(txt) return true } I dont really like that it comes up in a popup box. Is there a way to make this just write the error to the screen?

Hey guys, I acutally got it resolved. I used a while() statement in the email comparison check instead of a with() function validate_match(field1,field2,alerttxt) { while (field1,field2) { if (field1.value != field2.value) {alert(alerttxt);return false;} else {return true;} } } if (validate_match(txt_email_c,txt_email,"Emails do not match!")==false) {txt_email.focus();return false;}

Hello all, I have little experience with javascript, but I am trying to change that. Today it dawned on me that learning how to script in javascript would be alot easier if I could see all the errors my code is putting out. For example in PHP, if I wanted to see any errors that my code may produce, I would simply enter. ini_set('display_errors','On'); How can I do that for javascript? Thank you in advance for your help.

hmmmmm. now that I think about it, I haven't tried just an if statement instead of with().

Hey guys, I need a little bit of help with an odd problem when validating a form in javascript. The issue is that the form submits before the javascript finishes validating all fields. It will validate up to compairing the two emails fields. txt_email, and txt_email_c, then it skips all other fields and submits the form. Here is my code. function validate_email(field,alerttxt) { with (field) { apos=value.indexOf("@"); dotpos=value.lastIndexOf("."); if (apos<1||dotpos-apos<2) {alert(alerttxt);return false;} else {return true;} } } function checkemail(field1,field2,alerttxt) { with (field1,field2) { if (field1.value != field2.value) {alert(alerttxt);return false;} else {return true;} } } function validate_required(field,alerttxt) { with (field) { if (value==null||value=="") {alert(alerttxt);return false;} else {return true;} } } function validate_form(thisform) { with(thisform) { if (validate_required(txt_firstname,"Firstname must be filled out!")==false) {txt_firstname.focus();return false;} if (validate_required(txt_lastname,"Lastname must be filled out!")==false) {txt_lastname.focus();return false;} if (validate_required(txt_email,"Email must be filled out!")==false) {txt_email.focus();return false;} if (validate_email(txt_email,"Not a valid email!")==false) {txt_email.focus();return false;} if (validate_required(txt_email_c,"Email must be confirmed!")==false) {txt_email_c.focus();return false;} if (checkemail(txt_email_c,txt_email,"Emails do not match!")==false) {txt_email_c.focus();return false;} if (validate_required(txt_dob,"Username must be filled out!")==false) {txt_birthdate.focus();return false;} if (validate_required(txt_password,"Password must be filled out!")==false) {txt_password.focus();return false;} if (validate_required(txt_password_c,"Password must be confirmed!")==false) {txt_password_c.focus();return false;} } } any help any one can provide in trouble shooting this issue would be appreciated.

hmmm, would you mind explaining the code you gave me? I am a bit of a novice, and I am having a hard time understanding what the code is doing.

Thank you for the help. Yeah the reason I don't want to use much java is because of the very reason that I don't want to risk the java validation not working, and thus alowing people to put just anything in the database. I also need to setup someway to enforce a password requirements system. For example. Password must contain 1 upper case, 1 lower, 1 number, and 8 characters. Does any one have any clue on things like that

Does any one know a way to validate that all fields are filled out in a form with out writing an if else statement for each field? Here is kinda what I would like. On my form, I have 10 fields. I want to have the form validate that all fields are not equal to nothing before it submits the data. I think I may have to put the fields into an array, but I am not to savy on php yet. any help any one can provide will be appreciated.

So I am trying to set up some form validation for a register form. I have found many examples of how to display an alert box with an alert message, but what I would prefere doing is just writing the error to the page. Something like * Error, please fill in the [insert field name] If any would could provide some examples or just a quick little code snippet of how that would look. Here is what I am trying to do. if field =!"" { then submit the page } else write an error to the page Thanks in advance.

haha, omg! I must have been very tired, thanks for the assist.

Hello all, been trying to grab data from my database and use it as a value for a session. I can get it to display the data in a table without using a WHERE clause, and with out the if statement, but with those two added, I get just a blank screen with out any error. Would someone mind taking a look at this code, because I can't seem to find the problem. Thanks in advance. <?php session_start(); ini_set('display_errors','On'); include("constr.php"); $passwordHash = sha1($_POST['password']); $username ="$_POST[username]"; $sqlu ="SELECT * FROM ts_membership WHERE mUserName='$username' AND mPassword='$passwordHash'"; $result = mysql_query($sqlu) or die (mysql_error()); if (!mysql_query($sqlu,$sqlcon)) { die('Error: unable to connect (login.php):' . mysql_error()); } else while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $_SESSION['user']=$row['mUserName']; } //header('Location: ./home.php'); mysql_close($sqlcon); ?>

Hey guys, thanks alot for the help. I think I need to split the different functions up, like the login, the session, and the mysql connection before I try to combine them. The script seems to always fail on the sql results portion under mysql_fetch_array. Does anyone have any suggestions on reading material for what I am trying to accomplish?

never mind, I need to learn to read posts all the way through before posting.

Ether that or you can just size the textarea to the size of a standard input text box using col and row values. (i know dumb suggestion, but what ever works.)

Read up on css, there is a way to do it there.. The only thing I am not sure about is using it in a textarea. but worth a try:) p { white-space: nowrap; }

Thanks, I am glad I asked about this, I have been able to clear up alot of my pages using this method.

Thanks, One more quick question though, is it better to us top or bottom with margin, or does it matter?

hmmm, well going by some of the examples I have seen. would doing this make sense? div { margin-bottom: 10cm; }

Could you give me an example, I don't have much experience with padding or margins. I would really appreciate it.

Hello all, recently I have been trying to design a menu using HTML and php, the issue I have is I want to separate the different subsections with out making a new page. So basically you could ether click a link to a section on a page or scroll down. My question is regarding the empty space between the sections, What is the best way to add empty space, or white space? At the moment, I am just using like 10x <br> tags, but somehow I think that seems a tad inefficient. Is there a better way to do this?

Ok. 1. What webserver are you using, (apache, iis, tomcat, ect) 2. is this a virtual host? 3. what is your default ssl port set to on your webserver's configuration (normally 443) What I am getting at is, could you provide more information. Also you may want to post this in the webserver section for the forums.

I think I have answered my own question. I am assuming that there is not a way to "align" the section navigated too to the top of the screen, and that to do this, I just need to add "whitespace" or just some spacers to elonggate the page. again, any assistance would be appreciated. thanks.

Hello all, I have been scratching my head over this one for a while. I have a page with some anchor tags used for navigation of the parent page, but I cannot figure out how to get the tags to navigate to the top instead of just going to the first line where the anchor tag exists. http://exiled-alliance.com/tools/calltool/index.html Click on "Email Templates" and you will see what I mean. When you click on "Email Templates" I need it to align to the top of that section.

Hmm, well after reading my post over, you are right. I think I will explore other avenues. What I really need is a content management system.
