Form Validation Bug?

Hi,

I have a required validation enabled for the following field in the original form:

<input class="inputbox" maxlength="100" size="40" name="name" type="text">

The form does not display the required message if the field is left blank.

I rearrange to the following:

<input name="name" class="inputbox" maxlength="100" size="40" type="text">

And the validation works after simply switching the name. Any comments?

Hi danzenie,

The validation uses the 'class' attribute so my guess is that the new one is written where the 'name' attribute is so that in the first case it's after your 'class="inputbox" and isn't found.

Best not to use classes if you are using validation with the current release, in a future release Max may find the exisitng class and re-write it but that doesn't happen now.

Very good. Thanks
