validation works on some comp but not others. Why?

[legolaz]

Why is it tat when i test it on my browser it works fine. However when a fren of mine tests it on his computer also running IE, it doesnt work?
pls advise.

d=document.contact.c_comments.value;
if (d.length < 1)
{
alert('Please do not leave Comments blank');
document.contact.c_comments.focus();
return false;
}

Perhaps he's running an older version of IE than you? Or maybe he has Javascript disabled for some reason.

That's all I can think of...

[legolaz]

So is there a way to make it work for all browsers?
or at least Most versions of IE

[Geat]

Javascript HAS to be turned on, no doubt about that...

Have you tried

if (d == "") { alert("Don't leave commentsblank"); }

Instead?

Have you got a URL for the site?

[legolaz]

Yeah here it is
the site is http://66.246.35.222/~sprint/home.htm
go to contact us and try it

Works fine on mine mate - I guess your compadre is either using a really old browser version or has Javascript disabled.

The only way you could make it work in this case is to have the server validate the posted data, reload the form with a complaint written on it...

thanks a million
