tiota Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I have a form that enforce users to fill in using java script. My java script checks that the form is filled in otherwise informing the users to fill in text box. Suprisingly, some users manage to bypass this validation when they press Enter button on the keyboard. How can this happen ? Your help is pretty much appreciated. See my code below <script language="javascript"> function Validate() { reasons = document.LateForm.latereasons.value empnum = document.LateForm.empnum.value if (empnum == "") { Message = "Please enter your PF number" + "\n" alert(Message) return false } if (reasons == "") { Message = "Please state your reasons why do you come late" + "\n" alert(Message) return false } else { Message = "" document.LateForm.submit() return true } } </script> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="content-type"> <title>Late Form</title> <LINK REL=StyleSheet HREF="timecardbasic.css" TYPE="text/css" MEDIA=screen> </head> <body> <div id="leftcol"><?php include('TCNavi.inc'); ?></div> <div id="content"> <form method="post" action="late.php" name="LateForm"> <table style="width: 70%; text-align: left; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; font-family: Verdana;" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2"> <tbody> <tr style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" align="center"> <td style="background-color: rgb(100, 149, 237);" colspan="2" rowspan="1"><big>Late Form</big></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="width: 30%;">PF #:</td> <td><input maxlength="10" size="10" name="empnum"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Date:</td> <td><?php date_default_timezone_set("Pacific/Tarawa");echo Date('Y-m-d'); ?> <br><br> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Time In:</td> <td><?php echo date(' g:i A');echo "/"; echo date('H:i:s ',time()); ?> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="font-family: Verdana; width: 237px;">Late reasons:</td> <td style="width: 460px;"><textarea cols="35" rows="8" name="latereasons"></textarea></td> </tr> <tr align="center"> <td style="width: 100%;" colspan="2" rowspan="1"><input value="SIGN-IN" name="Save" type="submit" onclick="Validate();return false;"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <br> </form> </div> <?php //echo (gmstrftime(" %H:%M:%S", mktime())); ?> <br><br> <?php //echo date('Y-m-d'); ?> <br><br> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
