Flash Form Validation

[CFTR]

Hi,

I have a flash form as below.

<cfform action="#CGI.SCRIPT_NAME#?event=users.passwordchan geaction"
method="post" name="passwordchange" height="300" width="400" skin="haloblue"
format="flash" preloader="yes">

<cfinput type="text" name="currentpassword" size="12"
message="Please enter current password!" label="Current Password"
required="yes" />

<cfinput type="text" name="newpassword" size="12" message="Please
enter new password!" label="New Password" required="yes" />

<cfinput type="text" name="newpassword2" size="12" message="Please
enter new password again!" label="New Password Again" required="yes" />

<cfinput type="submit" name="changepassword" value="Change My
Password" label="Submit" validate="submitonce" />
</cfform>

I want to validate whether newpassword and newpassword2 fields are identical
or not on client side. Are there any method such as bind etc. to do this?

TIA!

Best regards,

O?uz Demirkap?

You can do this with the <cfform onSubmit> attribute.

try this:
-----------------------------
<cfform action="#CGI.SCRIPT_NAME#?event=users.passwordchan geaction"
method="post" name="passwordchange" height="300" width="400" skin="haloblue"
format="flash" preloader="yes" onSubmit="if( newpassword.text !=
newpassword2.text ){ alert('passwords don\'t match'); return false; }">

<cfinput type="text" name="currentpassword" size="12"
message="Please enter current password!" label="Current Password"
required="yes" />

<cfinput type="text" name="newpassword" size="12"
message="Please
enter new password!" label="New Password" required="yes" />

<cfinput type="text" name="newpassword2" size="12"
message="Please
enter new password again!" label="New Password Again" required="yes" />

<cfinput type="submit" name="changepassword" value="Change My
Password" label="Submit" validate="submitonce" />
</cfform>

-----------------------------

having a hard time changing a text field to propercase onchange in a flash
form..below is my cfinput and my javascript, any ideas?

<script language = "JavaScript">
//custom function to convert text to proper-noun case (initial caps).
function pcase(str) {
strlen = str.length
jj = str.substring(0,1).toUpperCase()
jj = jj + str.substring(1,strlen).toLowerCase()
for (i = 2; i <= strlen; i++) {
if (jj.charAt(i)==" ") {
lefthalf = jj.substring(0,i+1)
righthalf = jj.substring(i+1,strlen)
righthalf =
righthalf.substring(0,1).toUpperCase()+righthalf.s ubstring(1,strlen)
jj=lefthalf+righthalf
}
}
return jj
}
</script>

<cfinput type="text" name="FirstName" message="Please enter in a first name."
height="17" width="150" label="First Name:" validateat="onSubmit"
required="yes" onchange="getURL('javascript:this.value=pcase(this .value)')">
