PHP onSubmit, JS function will not execute
Question
I am still new to PHP and JS, but from what I have been reading on, when a form has an onSubmit element, then the form requires a return true from the function in order to execute the submission. I cannot get this to work however.
Can someone help me figure out what my problem is? I also added a random alert() at the beginning of the Javascript function and that does not go off either.
Thank you!
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script type="text/javascript">
function Validate(){
alert("validating..");
var min=document.forms["myForm"]["minWeight"].value;
var max=document.forms["myForm"]["maxWeight"].value;
if (min < max)
{
return true;
}
else
{
alert("Minimum weight " + min + " is not lower than " + max " Maximum weight");
return false;
}
}
</script>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<form name="myForm" action="page2.php" method="post" onSubmit="return Validate()">
<p><label>Enter minimum weight: <input type="number" name="minWeight" value="0" min="0" required /></label></p>
<p><label>Enter maximum weight: <input type="number" name="maxWeight" value="999" min="0" max="999" required /></label></p>
<p>Select gender:
<label><input type="radio" name="genderType" value="male" required /> Male</label>
<label><input type="radio" name="genderType" value="female" /> Female</label>
</p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></p>
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>

You have a typo in your javascript:
alert("Minimum weight " + min + " is not lower than " + max " Maximum weight");
^^^
Change it to:
alert("Minimum weight " + min + " is not lower than " + max + " Maximum weight");
and it should work, see the example on jsbin .
