Question

My code is in the

view

<?php echo CHtml::SubmitButton('Submit',array('onclick'=>'return validation();'));?>

and my script function is

function validation(){

    jQuery("#firstname_result").hide();

    jQuery("#lastname_result").hide();

    jQuery("#email_result").hide();

var firstname =jQuery("#first_name").val();

    var lastname = jQuery("#last_name").val();

    var email = jQuery("#email").val();

success=true;

if(firstname==''){

    success=false;

    jQuery('#firstname_result').html('First Name cannot be blank.').show();


}
if(lastname==''){
        success=false;
    jQuery('#lastname_result').html('Last Name cannot be blank.').show();

}
if(email==''){    
        success=false;
    jQuery('#email_result').html('Email cannot be blank.').show();

}

if(!success)
        return;

}

after clicking submit button, shows error and flashed out to other page where submit is targeted..can any one show me the way how I can able to overcome from this?

Answer 1

Try returning the value of the success variable. it should do the trick.

if(!success) return;

should be

return success;

this will stop the form from sumitting.
