How to compare two fields (email adresses) in a Frontpage form (no validation-just make shure they are the same) before (!!) onsubmit checking ?
I want two see if the content of two fields email_01 and email_02 is the same in a Frontpage form. No validation of the email adres needed. Just compare the two fields.
I would like the check to be made before clicking the submit button since onsubmit is handled to my knowledge by the FP server extensions webbot and I do not know if its alowed to change anything here.I want to make shure no mistakes are made in typing an email adres.
Hope this is clear since I'm Dutch speaking.

Sorry, I'm not an expert.
Now I have in my form <FORM METHOD="POST" name="FrontPage_Form1" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--" onSubmit="return FrontPage_Form1_Validator(
Where and how do I put the line from this javascript <form action="../" onsubmit="return checkEmail(this);"> ??

Well you already have an action in there. (action="--WEBBOT-SELF--" ) - what else are you validating? I am not certain if yo can use two different 'validators' on the same form

Sorry,This doesn't workwith me. Apparently you cannot have two onsubmit handlers on one form. Also my question was if its possible to compare the two fields BEFORE onsubmit.
Maybe it isn't ?

Yes it is. The code I gave you will but since you are using Fp form verification - and that does not allow it - you will eed to consider a JS function for everthing.
What are the fields you are needing to verify?

There are some required fields in the form, for example
<!--WEBBOT
BOT="Validation" B-Value-Required="TRUE" --><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Straat" SIZE="60" TABINDEX="3">
fields that may not be empty.Its basically a form for online sollicitation where we want the user obligatory tell us his name,birtdate,street,phone
