I would like to compare two text fields, if they are the same, don't allow the user to save the form using the submit button. I added code to the button in the Javascript are in the field. It did not work:
document.getElementById("My_submit_button").onclic = function() {myFunction()};
function myFunction(){
name1=document.getElementById("name1").value();
name2=document.getElementById("name2").value();
if (name1 === name2){
alert("Please change the names.");
return false;
}
return true;
}
I also tried this too in the submit button javascript area. The preventDefault() would prevent the submit to work but then it just would never work even after I changed the field text and pressed the submit button again.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('$seblod_form').submit(function(e){
var name1=$('#name1').val();
var name2=$('#name2').val();
if (name1 === name2){
alert("Please change names.");
e.preventDefault(e);
}
});
});
