Problem with stopping form submission

[ashsa]

Hi all

Am trying to validate a form onsubmit. And all the validation functions are working fine. I have assigned different type of validation functions to be called on clicking each input type="image"

The problem is when one button (image) has been clicked and an alert is given, after that whatever button (image) i click shows the same validation alert instead of showing its own validation error ..

Seems the problem is due to that i stop the form from being submitted by returning false..

Any help will be highly useful ..

Many Thanks in advance

Show your code.

Show your code.

The code goes this way :

<script>
function validSearchString()
{
	var str=document.getElementById('stringToSearch').value;
	if(str.length<3)
	{
		return false;
	}
	else
		return true;
}

function validPresType()
{
	if(document.getElementById('<%=PrescriptionHelper.PRESCRIPTION_TYPE_RADIO_BUTTON_NAME%>').selectedIndex==0)
		return false;
	else
		return true;
}

function validDrug()
{
	if(document.getElementById('prescriptionDrug').selectedIndex<1)
		return false;
	else
		return true;
}

function isPositiveInteger(val)
{
	if(val==null)
		return false;
    if (val.length==0)
		return false;
    for (var i = 0; i < val.length; i++)
	{
		var ch = val.charAt(i)
        if (ch < "0" || ch > "9")
	        return false;
    }
    return true;
}

function validateForm()
{
	if(btnClicked=="addquote")
	{
		if(!validPresType())
		{
			alert("Please select the Prescription Type");
			return false;
		}
		else if(!validDrug())
		{
			alert("Please select a Drug to add");
			return false;
		}
	}
	else if(btnClicked=="Go")
	{
		if(!validSearchString())
		{
			alert("Please provide at least three characters for your search");
			return false;
		}
		
	}
	else if(btnClicked=="AmendQuote")
	{
		for(x=0;x<<%=prescriptionItems!=null?prescriptionItems.length:0%>;x++)
		{
			if(!isPositiveInteger(document.getElementById('build_quote_qty_'+x).value))
			{
				alert('Please enter a valid Quantity');
				return false;
			}
		}
	}
}

</script>
<form name="SelectPrescription" method="Post" action="online_prescription_process.jsp" onsubmit="return validateForm()">
...
...
...
</form>
