[SOLVED] Form doesnt submit if validated

[dezkit]

My form doesn't submit if it is validated.

 

      function checkpostal(){
            var themessage = "You are required to complete the following fields: ";
            var re5digit="STEAM_[0|1]:[0|1]:[0-9]+";
            if (document.form.os1.value.search(re5digit)==-1){
            alert('Please enter a valid SteamID.\nSteamID has to be in the form of "STEAM_0:x:xxxxx"');
            } else {
            return true;
            }
      }

 

anyhelp?

Are you getting the alert message?

I think on the form you would add

<form onsubmit="return checkpostal()" name="steamid_form">

 

and in function checkpostal() you would have

 

document.steamid_form.submit()  instead of return true;

 

if anything, I would think that you would need the "return checkpostal()".

We would need to see the form code to be sure, and test ourselves.

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
      function checkpostal(){
            var themessage = "You are required to complete the following fields: ";
            var re5digit="STEAM_[0|1]:[0|1]:[0-9]+";
            if (document.form.os1.value.search(re5digit)==-1){
            alert('Please enter a valid SteamID.\nSteamID has to be in the form of "STEAM_0:0:123456"\nIf you do not know how to find your SteamID, press on the HELP? link.');
            } else {
            document.form.submit()
            }
      }
</script>

 

solved.
