Password Confirmation Check

dennisbillings · February 28, 2006

I'm trying to get javascript to validate my password and confirm password but it's not working. It does validate if my fields are not null but won't check to see if the passwords match. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[code]
<? include ("mysql_connect.php")?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Seven Deadly Sins - Tournament - Register User</title>

<script type="text/javascript">
function validate(uname,pass,pass1,fname,lname,email)
{
    // do various checks, this will save people noticing mistakes on next page
    if (uname.value == '' || pass.value == '' || pass1.value == '' || fname.value == '' || lname.value == '' || email.value == ''){
        if(pass.value == pass1.value){
            alert('Your password did not match the confirmed password.');
            return false;
            }else{
               return true;
          }


        alert('Please fill out all fields.');
        return false;
    }
    else
    {
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}


</script>
</head>

<body>

<?php

// Run MySQL query to retrieve clan list

$query=("SELECT clanname FROM clans");
$result=mysql_query($query)or die ('Query could not be processed:
'.mysql_error());

IF (isset($_REQUEST["uname"])){
    $uname = $_REQUEST["uname"];
    $pass = $_REQUEST["pass"];
    $pass1 = $_REQUEST["pass1"];
    $fname = $_REQUEST["fname"];
    $lname = $_REQUEST["lname"];
    $email = $_REQUEST["email"];
    $clanname = $_REQUEST["clanname"];
    $hashedp = md5($p);
    $emaillist=$_REQUEST['emaillist'];

// Start insert query after submit is set.

     $query=("INSERT INTO users (uname, pass, fname, lname, email, clanname,
     emaillist) VALUES
     ('$uname','$hashedp','$fname','$lname','$email','$clanname','$emaillist')");
     $result1=mysql_query($query)or die ('Your query could not be processed:
     '.mysql_error());

       IF ($result1){
       echo "You have been registered!";
       }

}
?>

<fieldset><form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>"
onsubmit="return validate(uname,pass,pass1,fname,lname,email);">

<?php
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
echo '<option value="' . htmlspecialchars($row['clanname']) . '">' .
$row['clanname'] . '</option>';
}
?>

<input type="checkbox" name="emaillist" value="1"></td><td> If you would

The way your function currently reads is:
If any of the fields are empty, check to see if the password and confirm password fields match.

function chkForm(frm)
{
if (frm.uname.value == "")
{
alert("Please enter a user name");
frm.uname.focus();
return false;
}

if (frm.pass.value == "")
{
alert("Please enter a password");
frm.pass.focus();
return false;
}

if (frm.pass1.value == "")
{
alert("Please confirm your password");
frm.pass1.focus();
return false;
}

if (frm.fname.value == "")
{
alert("Please enter your first name");
frm.fname.focus();
return false;
}

if (frm.lname.value == "")
{
alert("Please enter your last name");
frm.lname.focus();
return false;
}

if (frm.email.value == "")
{
alert("Please enter your email");
frm.email.focus();
return false;
}

if (frm.pass.value != frm.pass1.value)
{
alert("Your password and confirmation do not match");
frm.pass.focus();
return false;
}

return true;
}

<form name="myForm" id="myForm" action="somePage" method="post" on submit = "return chkForm(this)">
