My form won't check the fields...

[Smarty]

I have this javascript function in the head section:

<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
function checkform()
{

if (document.mailform.naam.value == &quot;&quot or (document.mailform.comment.value == &quot;&quot or (document.mailform.email.value == &quot;&quot
{
alert(&quot;Make sure all required fields are filled in!&quot;
return false;
}
else

return true;

}

</script>
-----------
This is my form:
<form action=mailpromo.asp method=post name=mailform onsubmit=&quot;checkform()&quot;>...
<input type=submit value=&quot;Send me that information!&quot;>
</form>
-------------
but when i click on the submit button, the actionpage is always opened even if the checked fields are empty. It seems he won't execute the function...

Can you tell me where i made the mistake?
Thanx,

Smarty

why not set the action to &quot;JavaScript:checkform();&quot; and at the end of the checkform function where you are currently returning true, do this instead: (or something simular)

document.mailform.action = &quot;mailpromo.asp&quot;;
document.mailform.submit();

this is the way I do it, so the submit actually launches the validation function, and that is responsible for posting if everything is ok. ?
