Quick question. Just started using JavaScript again after a few years off. I know there is a wealth of form validation out there, but for some reason I return false (see below) and the form still takes action. Isn't the form NOT supposed to take the "action" if the function below returns false? <form name="regForm" onSubmit="return addToShoppingCart()" action="registration.php?cf=2" method="post"> I know addToShoppingCart() returns false. Any ideas? What am I missing? Thanks as always.

Instead of using a submit button, I use just a regular HTML button which calls a function. That function (if the validations are met) will submit the form. I find that this method gives me much more flexibility. Michael J

Here is a simple form validation to test if a text box has no value. If the user does not enter something it won't submit. Your call is correct so it must be something below. function ValidateForm() { x=document.form if (x.fieldname.value == "") { return false } return true }
