Hello,
I'm building a website with an input form. The form has a lot of javascript checks, which display errormessages in dynamic html. These checks are performed onblur (for each field) and onsubmit (for the entire form, a function CheckForm is called).
Now, I would like to send the data to a PHP script.
I currently have action="sendmail.php", which directs to an error page and asks the user to press back to return to the form: all the dhtml errormessages are still show.
But, can I avoid the user having to press back by not redirecting to a new page if CheckForm says there are errors?
(If I redirect the user to the form page, the page reloads and the dhtml errormessages are not shown )
An option might be to have an onload function, which checks the referrer (how can I do this?). If the referrer is the php script: call CheckForm.
Bear in mind that the page is part of a Typo3 CMS, so I'm limited in sending parameters to pages.
Thanks!
Jorg
