how about that?
just put the code between your <head> tags.
I am using that for my forum forms.
<!-- Javascript function to check the submitted form has been filled in correctly before submitting -->
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">
<!-- Hide from older browsers
//Check the enquiry form is filled in correctly
function CheckForm () {
//Initialise variables
var errorMsg = "";
//Check for a last name
if (document.FormName.SelectBox.value == "Other"){
errorMsg += "\n\tError: \t- Sorry, please enter a value for 'Other'.";
}
//Check for a last name
if (document.FormName.SelectBox.value == ""){
errorMsg += "\n\tError: \t- Sorry, please enter a value for 'Other'.";
}
//If there is aproblem with the form then display an error
if (errorMsg != ""){
msg = "______________________________________________________________\n\n";
msg += "Form wasn't sent because you didn't fill one or more of necessary fields.\n";
msg += "Please fill in the necessary fields and try again.\n";
msg += "______________________________________________________________\n\n";
msg += "Following fields must not be blank: -\n";
errorMsg += alert(msg + errorMsg + "\n\n");
return false;
}
return true;
}
// -->
</script>

FrutZle,
I've emailed you your new validation script. As far as I could test it, it works. That was some pretty neat validation code. I've learned a bit with it. Didn't know Dreamweaver could do it.
Let me know how it goes.

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, at least here, but we've been having some problems with one of our copy/print machines and I haven't had time to do much online yesterday.
Anyway, Ruirib gave me a great solution so I'm out of trouble.
Dreamweaver can't do that validation by default, at least versions 3 and 4 can't, so I downloaded an extention a long time ago. I checked Macromedia's download centre, but they don't have it anymore and unfortunately I have so many of them that I don't know which file is the one for that extention (short, indescriptive file names  ).
Thank you all for your help. I really appreciate it, even if I don't use your codes.
