Form Field Validation

[shikha]

Hi,

I have several fields that needs to be validated. First of all on the drop
down menu, the first choice is -select-, how can i force validation so that
user selects something, and not leave it as -select-

And then want to do force validation for phone number.
I have tried usingt javascript, but it doesn't work...I am using Frontpage
2002, when i publish it on webserver, I find my javascript is overridden by
system or something...

Any ways around it?

Thank you

Disallow the first choice of "-Select-"

You can't easy validate phone number unless your site is US/CD based, i.e., (000) 123-2345 etc.

Hi Thomas,

I have tried that, but that doesn't work. If I choose "-Select", it lets me
submit....j

Then you have not set up the validation process correctly or you have change the form name from what
FP has named it, etc.
