adding to verification function

I have a verification function that checks my form fields if they have value
. if it doesn't it runs a string of things.

right now i have it to check 1 field.

function validateField(fieldname, labelname, longname) {
	longname = typeof longname !== 'undefined' ? longname : fieldname;
	
	if(document.getElementById(fieldname)) {
		if(document.getElementById(fieldname).value == "" || document.getElementById(fieldname).value == $('#' + fieldname).attr('placeholder') ) {
			 themessage = (themessage + longname+ '\n');
				
		}
	}
}

Open in new window

How can I use the same verification to if 2 fields are blank.
like this: if (document.form1.model.value=="" && document.form1.model1.value=="" ) {

How would I pass this using the function
if (document.form1.model.value=="" && document.form1.model1.value=="" )
validate(?????);

My code will handle both fields if you give them an ID and call them like

message += validateField("FieldID1","","long name");
message += validateField("FieldID2","","long name");

my question is how I should call the function to begin with.

Michel Plungjan

It is called for you,

It is assigned to the submit of the form

Just replace your code with mine and fill in the missing stuff

"FieldID1","here","and here");
