    Validation and popup window question

    After a user clicks the submit button I want a window to come up
    telling them your entry has been submitted.

    I have this code in my page load section which works well.

    Submit.Attribut es.Add("onclick ", "return window.confirm( 'Your entry
    was submitted.')")

    My problem is it's not picking up my validation if the user doesn't
    fill in the text boxes and just hit the submit button they get your
    entry was submitted. How do I get it to see the validation first and
    only submit the page after it's filled out?

      RE: Validation and popup window question

      the validation call is added to the onclick event also, but comes after your
      call (but your return prevents the validation call). you can call the
      validation logic yourself, or attach you code to the onsubmit event, which is
      only called after validation. (RegisterOnSubm itStatement).

      though it seems pretty bush to popup an alert that the user pressed the save
      button. confirmation on the response page that it was actually saved seems
      better (and not an alert).

          I had a label on the page telling the user the page was submitted but
          the user insteads wants a pop-up window.

          How do I set my page up to use RegisterOnSubmi tStatement?

              I got this to work:

              Page.ClientScri pt.RegisterStar tupScript(Me.Ge tType(), "clientScri pt",
              "window.alert(' Your entry was submitted');", True)

              How do I add window.location .href to this script to go to another page?
