Validate Form
Hi rmcivo1,
When assigning a value you use "="
When checking if values are equal you use "==".
Also the formObj has no value or isn't anything?
you need to get a handel on the form, try if(document.forms[0].name == "")
There are some good tutorials on the web just search for "javascript form validation"
Hope that helps
