Double enter form field script

Jon · External Since: Sep 05, 2004 Posts: 64

I'm trying to make a double enter form field script work with Front Page 2003
with no success. Is there a way to do this? I would like to do this to make
sure user email addresses are typed into the form correctly by making them
re-enter the address. I have a script from JavaScriptKit to add into the form
that does this.. but it's not working. The webbot ignores the script. Is
there any code I can manually add so that this will work?

You can not use FP form field validation and a 3rd Party JavaScript at the same time without
combining the FP Generate script with the 3rd Party script and then removing all the FP Form Field
Validation tags in HTML/Code View and renaming the form.

I'll try that, but if there is a way for FP to check one form field against
another it would be much easier to do and I would continue to have form field
validation on the other fields in the form and I wouldn't need to use a 3rd
party script. Is that possible?

FP doesn't have any built-in JavaScript form field validation function to check one field against
another field. You would have to combine both scripts.

Thanks Tom, it does run ok the way you said and I can live with that. Wish
that the webbot would support the double enter script process though. But
hey, maybe the replacement for FP will do it. Thanks again for the assist.
