Hi again, We are trying to figure out how to validate the form field values in XWiki. For example, if we have a form like this: <html> <form name="feedback" action="" method="post" onSubmit="return checkform()"> <input type="text" name="name"> <input type="text" name="email" value="xyz"> <textarea name="feed"></textarea> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> how do we check that none of the fields are left blank, valid characters etc... 1) Can we use Javascript? If yes, is there a special macro to embed javascript in xwiki editor? 2)I guess this question goes back to the $msg construct. Is there a msg that I can display if any fields have wrong values? Also, when I tried: <html> <form name="feedback" action="" method="post" onSubmit="return checkform()"> <input type="text" name="name"> <input type="text" name="email" value="xyz"> <textarea name="feed"></textarea> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> # set($name = $request.getParameter("name")) # set($email= $request.getParameter("email")) # set($feed= $request.getParameter("feed")) </form> The name is $name the velocity statements just printed as is on the page..the # being interpreted as 1, 2, 3. Why did this happen? Thanks
