Hello,

This is probally a very simple question but i am trying to invoke
client side validation on my inputs and i have typed this:

<!--- this example shows the use of cfinput within a cfform to ensure
simplevalidation of text items --->
<cfform action = "validjs.cfm" method="post">
<!--- phone number validation --->
Phone Number Validation (enter a properly formatted phone number): <br>
<cfinput
type = "Text" name = "MyPhone"
message = "Enter telephone number,formatted xxx-xxx-xxxx (e.g.
617-761-2000)"
validate = "telephone" required = "Yes">
<font size = -1 color = red>Required</font>
<!--- zip code validation --->
<p>Zip Code Validation (enter a properly formatted zip code):<br>
<cfinput
type = "Text" name = "MyZip"
message = "Enter zip code, formatted xxxxx or xxxxx-xxxx"
validate = "zipcode" required = "Yes">
<font size = -1 color = red>Required</font>
<!--- range validation --->
<p>Range Validation (enter an integer from 1 to 5): <br>
<cfinput
type = "Text" name = "MyRange" range = "1,5"
message = "You must enter an integer from 1 to 5"
validate = "integer" required = "No">
<!--- date validation --->
<p>Date Validation (enter a properly formatted date):<br>
<cfinput
type = "Text" name = "MyDate"
message = "Enter a correctly formatted date (dd/mm/yy)"
validate = "date" required = "No">
<input
type = "Submit" name = ""
value = "send my information">
</cfform>

it will not alert to an error. it will just go through and open the
form even if the fields are blank or wrong format.

Please help what am i doing wrong
