Validation on a form drop down box

[daveinuk]

Hi all. im using FP2003 and win XP.

I have an online form that I use for ordering tickets for an Am Dram group I am involved with. Within the form I have a dropdown box for where you select the performance that you want to see. The form just sends an email to someone when you click submit. We have been really lucky and managed to sell out our last night so when the user picks the last option in the box and then tries to click submit I would like a 'stop' box to appear saying something like 'Sorry, Saturaday night performance is sold out please choose another performance'

How can I do this?

Many thanks

David.

Hi Dave,

You can't accomplish this with the FrontPage form handler. You would need some sort of scripting such as ASP, PHP, Perl etc.

Hope I have been of some help,
