Validation FM6 Problem

Featured Replies

I am currently using FM 6 (We'll be converting to FM 7 later, but am stuck with 6 for now)

I'm trying to create a Entry Only html form to allow people to submit a pricing request form. I've managed to get the form created, solved the tab order problem and everything is working fine. I'm now working on the validation. The problem I have is that I have a simple Quote_already_Supplied_Y_N field on the form and if the field is yes, I want to validate that the user has also supplied the original quote number.

I created a validation calc as follows:

(Quote_Provided_Y_N = "No" or

not IsEmpty(Quote_Number))

This validation works correctly in FM, but doesn't work under IWP.

HELP, I really need to get this to work and don't want to use CDML as we're planning to upgrade to FM 7 as soon as we can get the entire backend application converted. Thanks for any ideas or workarounds...

IWP has many limitations, but AFAIK there is no difference in field validation. Perhaps you could post a simplified version of your file as an attachment.

I think the enclosed attachment represents a working example... The validation works within FM6, but won't work from a browser using IWP... Pretty simple. If the first field is "No" quote number can be empty, if it is "Yes" they must supply a value for quote_number

One other question, isn't there any way to control the error message displayed from the validation in IWP using FM6?
