Hi

I have two forms on my page. Both use javascript to validate input before
submission. Problem is that first form does the validation fine but the
second form gets submitted without any validation taking place. Simplified
form of code is given below.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Regards


<html>
<head>

<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
function validate()
{
// validation code here, which works fine
}

function valid1()
{
f=document.getElementById("Form1");
if(f.StaffCode.value<>"HS01")
{
alert("Invalied code. Please re-enter.");
f.StaffCode.focus();
return false;
}
}

// ]]>
</script>

</head>
<body>
<!--This form validates fine using function validate-->
<form id="theform" method="post" action="abc.asp" onsubmit="return
validate();">
<input type="hidden" name="mode" value="1">
<input type="text" name="muser" id="muser" value="" size="20">
<input type="password" name="mpass" id="mpass" value="" size="20">
<input name="bu_submit" type="image"
src="images/box/bu_login_sm.gif" border="0"
class="noborder" style="height: 31px;">
</form>

<!--This form does not validate using function valid1-->
<form id="Form1" method="post" action="xyz.asp" onsubmit="return
valid1();">
<input type="text" name="StaffCode" id="StaffCode" value=""
size="30">
<input name="bu_submit" type="image" src="images/box/bu_login.gif"
border="0" class="noborder"
style="height: 31px;">
</form>

There is a grammar error of javascript£º

if(f.StaffCode.value<>"HS01")
=>
if(f.StaffCode.value != "HS01")
