Question

I have a form and below is code
And when submit is clicked it returns true rather that displaying the
textfiled to empty, it should give some error.

Its a simple form validation

html

<form name="rt-form2"  method="post" onsubmit="return validateform();">
<input type="text" value="Name" name="name2" id="name1"><br>

<input type="text" value="Email" name="Email" id="Email1"><br>

<input type="text" value="Phone Number" name="phone" id="phone1"><br>

<input type="submit" value="submit" name="submitm" class="submit-btn">
</form>

and javascript validation

<script type="text/javascript">
 function validateform(){
 alert("Submit button is clicked");


     if(document.rt-form2.name2.value.length < 1) {
        alert("Enter name");
        return false;
     }
     else {
        alert("Submitting");
        return true;
    }


}

</script>

Dude your script is correct. Just remove the hyphen from your form name and you’re good to go!
