Ability to write custom javascript to validate form elements?

Reply Quote

A customer is asking about this possibility: If we manually add a form element (whose name we would control) to the editor, like the following textbox example, do we have the ability to allow the user to type data into this element and then edit/validate this data by adding our own Javascript into a CuteSoft event-handler file somewhere?

strFormFieldHTML = strFormFieldHTML & "<input type=text name=OurTextBox"

strFormFieldHTML = strFormFieldHTML & " maxlength=" & strSize

strFormFieldHTML = strFormFieldHTML & " size=" & strSize & ">"

Editor1.Text = strFormFieldHTML

Yes.

By default Cute Editor automatically strips all script elements and script contents from the html to prevent javaScript injection.

You can turn this feature off by setting Editor.EnableStripScriptTags property to false.

Great, thanks.

An additional thought: If, for instance, we add a button form-element (whose id we would control/know) into the editor and a user clicks that button, is there an on-click event-handler anywhere that is executed? If so, can we add our own validation javascript to that event-handler (instead of directly into the editor)?

You need to add your own. Please read this:

Yes.
