Hi,
Is there any way that I can make FormMail send an IP address with the mail it sends to the recipent when it is filled in.
Also is there a way I can make the email field compulsary on a feedback form such as the one I am using at http://www.bluesweb.co.uk/forms/feedback.php, IE so if you leave the email field blank it doesn't let you send the form?
Thanks! |

I assume you want something in Javascript for the validation. Someone wrote this for me once, which might do the trick. Could be much simpler for just one field.
Stick this in the head
| Code: | <script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function validateForm() {
var warning = "";
if(document.frm.name.value == "") {
warning = "\nName";
}
if(document.frm.email.value == "") {
warning += "\nE-mail address";
}
if(document.frm.address.value == "") {
warning += "\nAddress";
}
if(document.frm.postcode.value == "") {
warning += "\nPostal Code";
}
if(document.frm.fax.value == "") {
warning += "\nFax";
}
if(document.frm.tel.value == "") {
warning += "\nWork/Home number";
}
if(warning != "") {
alert("You must fill in the following fields:\n" + warning + "\n\nPlease try again.");
} else {
document.frm.submit();
}
}
//-->
</script> |
This is the form
| Code: | <form name="frm" method="post" action="">
<input type="text" name="name" class="forms" size="30">
<input type="text" name="email" class="forms" size="30">
<textarea name="address" class="forms" cols="30" rows="4" wrap="VIRTUAL"></textarea>
<input type="text" name="postcode" class="forms" size="30">
<input type="text" name="tel" class="forms" size="30">
<input type="text" name="fax" class="forms" size="30">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" class="forms" onClick="validateForm();return false;">
</form> |
Of course it only checks that the fields aren't empty. |

just a note about relying on JavaScript to validate forms...while it may be quicker than submitting and waiting, it can be easily by-passed...
also: what if the user doesn't support JavaScript? or has it turned off for some reason? the form won't be validated...I suggest using php instead. |
