password confirmation

[Paul M]

Hi
I have made a registration FP form which submits to an access database.
How can I have the user put in a password into a textbox then have to
re-enter the password into a text box below and have the form compare the
two text boxes for the same password,
Best wishes

You would have to custom-program your page in ASP or ASP.NET.

This is because browsers only have one onsubmit event handler, and FrontPage
usually grabs that for any other validation you're doing. So, you can't do
validation when the visitor clicks Submit.

That leaves validation at the field level, which is usually unsatisfactory
for comparing two fields. For example, if the visitor is in the field with
the correct value, they get your error message when they leave the field to
go and correct the incorrect value.
