Hello. I have a form that I inherited and assume was generated by
FrontPage. I am trying to add a call to a javascript function to check
that a user has filled in the required fields. The javascript function
works fine on other forms. FP removed the call to my function when I
put it in the onSubmit clause. I was tring to replace:
onSubmit="return FrontPage_Form1_Validator(this)"
with
onSubmit="return checkrequired(this)"

Looking at an answer previously posted here
(http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=214965), I put my
call in the OnClick clause. Now my function get called but the
parameter is not recognised in my function. My function is:
function checkrequired(which) {
var pass=true;
if (document.images) {
    alert("At this point, which.length is " + which.length);
    for (i=0;i<which.length;i++) {
        var tempobj=which.elements[i];
        if (tempobj.name.substring(0,8)=="required") {
            if (((tempobj.type=="text"||tempobj.type=="textarea")&&
              tempobj.value=='')||(tempobj.type.toString().charAt(0)=="s"&&
              tempobj.selectedIndex==0)) {
                pass=false;
                break;
         }
      }
   }
}
if (!pass) {
    shortFieldName=tempobj.name.substring(8,30).toUpperCase();
    alert("We cannot process your request without the necessary
information.  Please make sure that your "+shortFieldName+"
information was properly entered.");
return false;
}
else
return true;
}

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks!
