Question

Client Side Validate Email

I have one .cfm page containing only a <cfform action= url and a <cfinput . . . required="yes"> where a message box pops up if there is not a value entered (ie it works fine)

BUT no pop up occurs when:

another .cfm page that starts with a <cfif> that nests the <cfform action="" and <cfinput . . . required="yes" message="Please enter a valid Email Address." validate="email">

Any help on why this might be???

    LMAO!!

    Nice one.

    Well, to the user, you really should brush up your question a bit more.

    If the only difference is a CFIF, then perhaps a condition is not being met?
