Frontpage 2003 generated form validation javascript is shown in NS 7.01

Hi Corey!

Can I copy the FP generated javascript to a .js file and somehow call it instead of the FP function?

Here is the FP generated code: (it seems to be chocking at the 70 value.

<script Language="JavaScript" Type="text/javascript"><!--
function FrontPage_Form1_Validator(theForm)

  if (theForm.Name.value == "")
  {
    alert("Please enter a value for the \"Name\" field.");
    theForm.Name.focus();
    return (false);
  }

  if (theForm.Name.value.length > 70)
  {
    alert("Please enter at most 70 characters in the \"Name\" field.");
    theForm.Name.focus();
    return (false);

Honestly, I know nothing about JS,  I would recommend (I can do it) :) is to delete this question for you, paste this information into the JS TA: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Web_Languages/JavaScript/ and ask them - some really great JS coders there

Thank you in advance.

make sure your code is between

<script language="javascript">

</script>

tags

oh, change this line

//--></script>

to this

Hi!

Here is a link to the page that works in IE, but not in NS 7.01.

Any ideas why the javascript is being displayed?

Thank you in advance.
