Input validation

[OldSmelly]

Hi all,

I have a form where the user can input some data ie name adress etc. It works great but I wan't to do some validation like teh name field must be filled out. If a user press submit then a warning should be given preff without leaving the form.

Is this posible and how ?

Thanks

Hans

That wouldn't be PHP then, but client-side Javascript. That's

I'd recommend you do a Google search for "javascript form validation" first and see what you can find there.

Trollacious si right, if you want to validate the form without leaving its Javascript territory.

However if you don't mind having the the form subitted, then trhe validation can be done in PHP, and it would return the browser to the form in the event something is not filled out.
