The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Validation for Required Fields with Dynamic Names Dynamic Required Yes/No

Asked by YLaw in ColdFusion Studio, JavaScript, Miscellaneous Web Development

Tags: , ,

I have a form that has the fields coming from Custom Tags.  I have examples of the two types:
The first is a textarea.  The second is a radio button and I don't know how to show that it is required.  I'd like to somehow check that if they are required, on submit, it checks and if they are not filled out, it should throw an error message and highlight the field that is required and not filled out.  Thanks.

<TEXTAREA required=#iif(attributes.RequiredField EQ 0, de("yes"), de("no"))# cols="85" rows="7" name="#Attributes.ControlName#" id="txt.#Attributes.ControlName#">
#attributes.StoredValue#
</textarea>            

<TABLE class="evalradio">
                        <TR>
                        <th class="evalradio">Unsatisfactory</th>
                        <th class="evalradio">Needs Improvement</th>
                        <th class="evalradio">Meets Expectations</th>
                        <th class="evalradio">Exceeds Expectations</th>
                        <th class="evalradio">Far Exceeds Expectations</th>
                        </tr>
                        <TR>
            
                        <TD class="evalradio"><input type="Radio" name="#Attributes.ControlName#" value="0" <CFIF Attributes.StoredValue EQ 0>checked</cfif>></td>
                        <TD class="evalradio"><input type="Radio" name="#Attributes.ControlName#" value="1" <CFIF Attributes.StoredValue EQ 1>checked</cfif>></td>
                        <TD class="evalradio"><input type="Radio" name="#Attributes.ControlName#" value="2" <CFIF Attributes.StoredValue EQ 2>checked</cfif>></td>
                        <TD class="evalradio"><input type="Radio" name="#Attributes.ControlName#" value="3" <CFIF Attributes.StoredValue EQ 3>checked</cfif>></td>
                        <TD class="evalradio"><input type="Radio" name="#Attributes.ControlName#" value="4" <CFIF Attributes.StoredValue EQ 4>checked</cfif>></td>
                        </tr>
                        </table>
