submitting form problem..

semicolons are not required at the end of the line in javascript. Php, yes, javascript, no.

Prehaps I'm missing something, but I think you are making this more complicated than it should be.

instead of having your form, that when it's submitted it's checked for errors. If it passes error checking, the form is presented for confirmation and submitted to a different place. If it fails error checking, it is presented for correction and submitted back to itself again.

So, rather than trying to set the submit via javascript, set it in the normal action way, but have the action determined by your php. Something like this:

[code]<?php
//WA eCart Include
require_once("WA_eCart/chandlery_PHP.php");
require_once("WA_ValidationToolkit/WAVT_Scripts_PHP.php");
require_once("WA_ValidationToolkit/WAVT_ValidatedForm_PHP.php");

$chandlery->GetContent();

$postto = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

if (isset($_POST["Checkout"])) {
$WAFV_Redirect = "checkout.php";
$_SESSION['WAVT_checkout'] = "";
if ($WAFV_Redirect == "") {
$WAFV_Redirect = $_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"];
}
$WAFV_Errors = "";
$WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateRQ(((isset($_POST["Name"]))?$_POST["Name"]:"") . "",true,1);
$WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateEM(((isset($_POST["Email"]))?$_POST["Email"]:"") . "",true,2);
$WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateCC(((isset($_POST["CreditCardNo"]))?$_POST["CreditCardNo"]:"") . "","4:51:52:53:54:55:34:37:30:36:38:",true,3);
$WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateRQ(((isset($_POST["CreditCardType"]))?$_POST["CreditCardType"]:"") . "",true,4);

if ($WAFV_Errors != "") {
PostResult($WAFV_Redirect,$WAFV_Errors,"checkout");
} else {
$postto = 'checkout_confirm.php';
}
}

// WA eCart Redirect
if ($chandlery->redirStr != "") {
header("Location: ".$chandlery->redirStr);
}
?>

That is what I suggested, but he insists on doing it with JavaScript (not really sure why).

ahh, i get it now, i'll have a play with it and let you guys know how i go..

john_6767 · August 13, 2006

ok, i see how this is supposed to work, i have a small error,

the page is ment to submit to the next page if there is no errors, this code at the moment only sets the action to '$postto', this means that the page reloads and the submit button needs to be re pressed to get to the next page.

So that said my question is; how do i get the php to submit the form when the $postto is set, i don't want to have to push the submit button twice when the correct data is entered.

ok, solved my problem, thanks for your help guys, i've learnt some good habits on the way!
