Event after formCheck completes?

sloanthrasher 19 Sep, 2019

Hi,

I'm working on a site using CFv4. It's an existing site with many forms, (100's), so upgrading isn't an option for now.

I need to do some actions after the validations done by formCheck. Basically, if the validation succeeds, I'll disable the submit button and display a message.

How can I react to an event after the validation and get it's status?

Thanks!

Hi Sloan,

First I suggest that you install CFv6 alongside CCv4 and recreate forms in CFv6 as you find the need to work on them,

What exactly is formCheck - that's not a term I remember from CFv4? I just took a look and do see it in the version I have installed.

Hi Bob,

FormCheck.js is the library used in CFv4 for field validation. From what I see, it is configured to validate fields wen the form is submitted. It checks for required, email format, etc.

Basically, I need to execute code after the submit button is pressed, and the form is validated to prevent multiple presses of the submit button, and only if the validation passes.

PS
I my have found a solution, and will post if it works.

Hi sloanthrasher,

Please see this FAQ for some CFv4 code that I think should do what you need with a little modification.
