Adobe Spry and multiple buttons

[johnsimpson]

Hi All,

Im using some of adobe's spry elements for form validation but I have an issue. Basically my form has 2 buttons on it and I only want the form validation to activate on one of the buttons. Does anyone know if this is possible and how i might achieve it?

thanks
John

Hi

Is your document looking like the XHR submit and form validation example on Spry's site ?

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="SubmitChecker.php" onsubmit="return [red]!check ||[/red] validateonsubmit(this);">

<input type="submit" value="Submit with validation" [red]onclick="check=true"[/red]/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit without validation" [red]onclick="check=false"[/red]/>

</form>

not quite... our form is a asp/c# form and the other button is to take the user to an amend details page. the button we want the form to validate from is the submit button but this example may work...

I will speak to our developer and ask him if he can add the onclick to the buttons, i presume we need to add the onsubmit as well?

the problem is the form runs at server, will this cause a problem?

thanks for your quick response

Hi

Theoretically the [tt]onsubmit[/tt] should be already there if the Spry form validation was implemented.

the problem is the form runs at server

I suggest to ask more about it in an asp/c# forum. We are doing JavaScript here.

ok thanks for your help, I just thought with it being a javascript app it wouldnt harm to ask.

I will have a try with your suggestion and also enquire on a asp/c# forum

thanks again
