Form Validation Javascript!

[voyager]

Hello,

Can someone please tell me which file to edit for the javascript form validation code for new accounts?

I found it in this file:
modules/pages/create_account/jscript_form_check.php

But that wasn`t the one. Nothing happened after I changed it. So, then I found it in this file:
includes/form_check.js.php

But again, after editing, nothing happened. I thought it might be being cached, but no joy there either.

Is it in some other file?

Many thanks,
David.

For new accounts via the "create_account" page, you were correct in looking at this one:
modules/pages/create_account/jscript_form_check.php

However, if the "new account" was created via the "login" page, you'll need to make the same edits to the jscript file in the login page folder:
modules/pages/login/jscript_form_check.php

Hi,
in the similar vein, while making changes to create_account I was wondering why the form validation seems to be duplicated in both the php and in the javascript.
If the fields pass the javascript, the red error messages from the php wont get shown/are redundant.

Is it because we still supposed to be looking after people with javascript disabled?

thanks in advance,
Steve

Yes, I'm pretty sure that's why it's duplicated. One of the things I like about Zencart is that it works in all browsers, regardless of the settings the visitor prefers.

Only if you want us as customers, I guess.
