Checkbox validation issues

Hello Bob,

I need some help.

At http://cp03.buyhttp.com/~insidepd/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=466&Itemid=106 i'm building a form so my site users can upload photos and videos, that will be published in the site.

I want then to have to check the 2 checkboxes at the end of the form, because, this way, they confirm they are the owners of th content and grant me the right to use it on the site.

I have inserted the field names (autorizacao, propriedade) in the validation tab, without spaces, this time😛

But it's not working. The form code is:

<?php
global $my,$mosConfig_live_site;
// verifica se o utilizador fez login
// o nome e email sÃ£o preenchidos automÃ¡ticamente e definidos como read only
//$readonl="";
if ($my->id) {
//$readonl=" readonly='readonly'";
} 
?>


<table width="500" cellspacing="5">
<tr><td valign="middle"><label for="user">Nome</label></td>
    <td valign="middle"><input name="user" type="text" id="user" value="<?php echo $my->name?>"<?php echo $readonl?> /></td></tr>
    
<tr><td valign="middle"><label for="email">Email</label></td>
    <td valign="middle"><input name="email" type="text" id="email" value="<?php echo $my->email?>"<?php echo $readonl?> /></td></tr>
    
<tr><td valign="middle"><label for="telefone">Telefone</label></td>
	<td valign="middle"><input name="telefone" type="text" id="telefone" /></td></tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="middle"> </td>
  <td valign="middle"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td colspan="2" valign="middle"><h2>ConteÃºdos</h2></td>
  </tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="middle">Ficheiro</td>
  <td valign="middle"><input type="file" name="anexo1" id="anexo1" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="top">DescriÃ§Ã£o</td>
  <td valign="middle"><textarea name="descricao1" cols="38" rows="5" id="descricao1"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="middle">Ficheiro</td>
  <td valign="middle"><input type="file" name="anexo2" id="anexo2" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="top">DescriÃ§Ã£o</td>
  <td valign="middle"><textarea name="descricao2" cols="38" rows="5" id="descricao2"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="middle">Ficheiro</td>
  <td valign="middle"><input type="file" name="anexo3" id="anexo3" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="top">DescriÃ§Ã£o</td>
  <td valign="middle"><textarea name="descricao3" cols="38" rows="5" id="descricao3"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="middle">Ficheiro</td>
  <td valign="middle"><input type="file" name="anexo4" id="anexo4" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="top">DescriÃ§Ã£o</td>
  <td valign="middle"><textarea name="descricao4" cols="38" rows="5" id="descricao4"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="middle">Ficheiro</td>
  <td valign="middle"><input type="file" name="anexo5" id="anexo5"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="top">DescriÃ§Ã£o</td>
  <td valign="middle"><textarea name="descricao5" cols="38" rows="5" id="descricao5"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="middle"> </td>
  <td valign="middle"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td colspan="2" valign="middle"><h2>Direitos de Autor</h2></td>
  </tr>	
  
<tr>
  <td colspan="2" valign="middle"><table width="100%">
    <tr>
      <td><input name="propriedade" type="checkbox" id="propriedade" value="sim" />
        <label for="propriedade">Declaro que os conteÃºdos enviados sÃ£o minha propriedade e/ou autoria</label></td></tr>
    <tr>
      <td>
        <input name="autorizacao" type="checkbox" id="autorizacao" value="sim" />
        <label for="autorizacao">Autorizo o portal pegadas.iol.pt, a utilizar estes conteÃºdos, sem restriÃ§Ãµes.</label></td></tr>
  </table>  </td>
  </tr>
<tr>
  <td valign="middle"> </td>
  <td valign="middle"> </td></tr>
<tr><td valign="middle"> </td>
    <td valign="middle"><input type="reset" value="Limpar" class="button" /> <input type="submit" value="Enviar" class="button"></td></tr>			
</table>

I have looked in the forum for a solution, but haven't found anything that fits my case.

Thanks,

Sofia

Hi Sofia,

I'm sorry to tell this but the current validation doesn't support checkboxes validation so you will need to add a small JS to check for this, something like :


if(document.getElementById('checkbox1').checked == false)
alert('check me');

Cheers
