Validating forms and this piece of code does not work. Could you please tell me why?

[hasser964]

I am validating forms in JavaScript, and It's just not working. I have tried to figure it out myself, but I can't. The spaces between the forms are where the break tags are.

<form name = "check" >
First Name*:
<input type="text" name="First Name" maxlength="15"/>




Last Name*:
<input type="text" name="Last Name" maxlength="15"/>




Email*:
<input type="text" name="Email"/>




Contact Number:
<input type="text" name="contact number"/>




Message*:


<textarea name="Enquiries" rows="10" cols="50">
</textarea>





<input type="checkbox" name="pricing"> I would like to find out the pricing of a particular painting.</input>


<input type="checkbox"> I am asking a question.</input>



<input type="submit" name="Send" onClick = "check()"/>

</form>

<script type = "text/javscript">

function check(){
if(document.check.pricing.checked){
alert("OIIIIIII!");
}
else{
alert("not checked");
}
}

</script>


P.S.
If you know any good places to learn Javascript, please post them with your answer

Don't attach an onclick to the submit button. Use onsubmit on the form tag itself and have the JavaScript return true or false depending on whether or not the form should be submitted.

Don't use alert - it is intended only for debugging.
