I am sure Whammy has answered this for me one time or the other but I will ask again becuase I forgot how to do it.


u_checked=ucase(trim(request.form("u_checked")))

' Check the box to see if checked
' then add to the display message
if (u_checked = "") and (u_submit <> "") then
message= message & "*Please enter agree to the terms and conditions<br>"
end if

<font size="1"><input type="checkbox" name="u_checked" value="ON"> I accept the <a href="terms.asp" target="_blank">service terms & conditions</a></font>



I cannot get that piece of code to verify. Any ideas??

Thanks, Phillip Ewing

you just assign a value to the message variable but you are not displaying its value. Is that the reason why you can't verify if the condition is correct?

Below is the completed code for verification. I think the hardest part is verifying the checkbox.


u_checked=ucase(trim(request.form("u_checked")))

' Check the box to see if checked
' then add to the display message
if (u_checked = "") and (u_submit <> "") then
message= message & "*Please enter agree to the terms and conditions<br>"
end if

<font size="1"><input type="checkbox" name="u_checked" value="ON"> I accept the <a href="terms.asp" target="_blank">service terms & conditions</a></font>

response.write "<br><b>Agree to the terms and conditions: " & u_checked & "<br>"

MessageBody = MessageBody & "Agree to the terms and conditions: " & u_checked & vbCrLf


Thank you for your help in advance, Phillip Ewing

if the checkbox is not checked, u_checked is blank.
when are you displaying the value of the checked variable?

if (u_checked = "") and (u_submit <> "") then
message= message & "*Please enter agree to the terms and conditions<br>"
response.write message
end if

I do not know how to check to see if it is checked or not. I do not understand how to do this.

Thanks, Phillip

<select name="u_checked">
<option value="Select">Select</option>
<option value="Yes">Yes</option>
</select>

With this valifdation in the <head>

<script language="JavaScript">
function SubmitForm() {
var blnProblem = false;
var ptrForm = document.frmnamehere;
if(ptrForm.u_checked.value == "Select"){
alert("Please confirm you agree to the terms and conditions");
ptrForm.u_checked.focus();
return (false);
}
if(blnProblem == false) {
ptrForm.submit();
}
}
</script>

and this for the button

<input type="button" value="Send Details"
name="B1" class="NormalButton" onClick="SubmitForm()">

this is how you check if the checkbox is checked:

u_checked=request.form("u_checked")
if (u_checked = "") then
response.write "Checkbox is not checked"
else
response.write "Checkbox is checked"
end if

glenngv,

I have attached my code. Can you please take a look at it? I copied it in there as instructed and it still failed. I am missing something and I just do not know what. Thank you in advance.

you are saying that it still did not work but you are not applying the idea of what i've been saying...


<%
...
u_checked=request.form("u_checked") 'no need to trim
if u_checked="" then
u_checked="NO"
strCheck = ""
else
strCheck = " checked"
end if
...
%>
...
<INPUT type="checkbox" name="u_checked" value="YES"<%=strCheck%>>
...
<%
...
response.write "<br><b>Agree to the terms and conditions: " & u_checked & "</b><br>" 'YES or NO
...
%>
