using javascript return value to forward

[sunitha Veda]

Hello,

In my struts application, I have a submit button. On clicking it, it calls a javascript function which return a true/false value. if teh return value is true, it should take to the next page and if false, it should not. Can some one please let me know how to achieve this? Thanks for your time!

It sounds like what you're trying to do is validate the information on the form before submitting it.

If this is the case, name your function validate() or something similar and have it return true if it passes the validation, and false if it doesn't. Then have your "onclick" event for the button call the following function or something similar:

function submitForm() {
  if (!validate()) {
    return;
  }
  document.MyForm.submit();
}
