I have a page that has 2 forms on it.. and based on a selection make on the
previous page, they see the correct form needed.

My problem is that one of the forms is doing nothing but displaying their
selections from the previous page and only option is to submit the form..
the other form requires name and email to be completed to be sent along with
the other data that is dsiplayed on the screen.

Since i have 2 forms on the page and each form is being displayed based on a
value passed from the previous page... how can i setup the validation to
fall under that same if condition?

I tried using the same if condition wrapped around the validation code, but
it still lets the form post without any data in the fields

Any suggestions? any sites available that may explain this?

Each form has its own name, i tried the standard form validation within
dreamweaver and also the WA Validation ToolKit and i cant seem to get this..
can this be done? If so maybe im wrapping the wrong things in the
conditions..
i did notice that with the WA validation, it acknowledges the different
forms and i can pick the proper fields, but still nothing.


thanks in advance

Have two forms on the page. each one has its own SUBMIT button. Use the
value passed from the previous page to determine which <form> tag gets -

style="display:none"

added inline.

Use the validation tool to validate each form's submission. It should work
like melted buttah.

Thanks for the reply, but where should i apply that style?
here are my form tags and if conditions. ( no need to post all of the form )

<% If Request.Form("payment")= "P" Then %>
<form target="mypay" action=https://mypayment.com/ method="post"
name="payp" >

<% Else %>
<form action="email.asp" method="post" name="email" >


Should i be more specific with the If Request for the 2nd form like this?
<% If Request.Form("pay")= "P" Then %>
<form target="mypay" action=https://mypayment.com/ method="post"
name="payp" >
<% End If %>
<% If Request.Form("pay")= "E" Then %>
<form action="email.asp" method="post" name="email" >
<% End If %>

So let me understand - the ELEMENTS within the form are the same? The only
difference between the two forms is the form tag itself? If that's the
case, I think you should take a different approach.

The page would have a single form on it. Use your logic to rewrite the
action attribute, e.g.,

<form <% if Request.Form("payment")= "P" then response.write('target="mypay"
action=https://mypayment.com/') else response.write(' action="email.asp"')
%> method="post" name="paypEmail" >

the logic
