Two things -
There's no closing </script> tag.
There's no submit button.
Nope but here it is!
What is happening is - it is going into the function but still going to next page and not going into the ifs!
Cheers everyone! This is just so annoying!
here is all the code:
<SCRIPT>
function Validate()
{
alert("in function")
logInName=form1.LogInName.value;
if (LogInName=="")
{
alert('LogInName name is a required field. Please try again.');
event.returnValue=false;
}
}
</SCRIPT>
</head>
<body>
<form name="form1" action="<cfoutput>#CurrentPage#</cfoutput>" method="POST" onsubmit="Validate()">
<table>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"> Login Name</td>

This is the original way I had the code before I looked up search engines (it worked before in another one of my websites
)
<script language = "javascript">
function checkform()
{
<!-- alert("in function"); -->
logInName = true;
if(document.form1.logInName.value=="")
{ logInName = false;
alert("Please enter a log in name in the field provided fdiona");
document.form1.logInName.focus();
return false;
}
pass = true;
if(document.form1.pass.value=="")
{ pass = false;
alert("Please enter your password in the field provided");
document.form1.pass.focus();
return false;
}
first= true;
if(document.form1.first.value=="")
{ first = false;
alert("Please enter your first name in the field provided");
document.form1.first.focus();
return false;
