checking text field value length
javascript
Solution
Change your submit button to type="submit". The form is never getting submitted so the validate function isn't being called.
Problem
I am trying to see if the text field length is at least a certain length. here is my code: ``` <form name="form2" id="form2" onsubmit="return validate()"> length 4: <input type="text" name = "t" id="t" /> <input type="button" name="submit" value="submit" /> </form> <script> function validate() { document.write("good"); submitFlag = true; if(document.form2.t.value.length!=4){ submitFlag=false; alert("ivalid length - 4 characters needed!"); } return submitFlag; } </script> ``` when I click submit, nothing happens.
