2 function with submit event handler

[Yammaski]

I want 2 functions checked onsubmit event handler.

First function checkchars(cur) has to be true : max 5 chars for textwidth 5 cm, max 10 chars for textwidth 10 cm, .... .

Second function radio_button_checker() has to be true : check if a radio button is hit.

I tried a lot of things in vain.

onSubmit="if (!checkchars(this)||!radio_button_checker()) { return false; }"

As I said in the other thread, always remember the final semi-colons. It may not seem important now, but it will really help to debug things later.

Also, this assumes that your functions are working now.

Alternatively you could place that in a new function like this:

function checkform(form) {
if (checkchars(form)&&radio_button_checker()) { return true; }
return false;
}

Use it like this:
onSubmit="return checkchars(this);"

onSubmit="if (!checkchars(this)||!radio_button_checker()) { return false; }"

The alert works, but when the number of chars is ok ... nothing happens.

The new function : alert for chars works, but no alert when no radio button is checked.

That is because of the way that it processes the AND/OR commands.
It fails before continuing.

Try this:

function checkform(form) {
var check1 = checkchars(form);
var check2 = radio_button_checker();
if (check1==true&&check2==true) { return true; }
return false;
}

Almost ... but the submit doesn't send anything. When the text is send, it appears under the textfield.

onSubmit="return checkform(this);"

Test

Try this:
onSubmit="if (!checkform(this)) { return false; };"
