Didier,

The doc2form which is the latest version of autoform has the ability to send confirmation email so your better off using that instead of autoform. You can get it from codeplex

Hello Ismail,

I knew I didn't express myself right :).

I was talking about a very common validation.

Email: [                              ]

Confirm Email: [                              ]

OR

Password: [                                     ]

Confirm Password: [                                ]

How do I add the ability to validate that the user entered the same info in both the "email" and the "confirm email" fields?

Thank you.

Didier

hi didier,

You would need to make a custom datatype that included the compare validator on it. 

Second option is to use two fields, and use a JS validation framework over the built in .NET validators.

Unfortunately, Doc2Form or Autoform Plus neither do that directly, as the option is not available in the current set of data types.

Case

Very cool.

Thank you for your help.

Didier

I've actually dug up a sample of the code I used, hope you'll find it usefull:

var elm = document.forms[0];

if (elm.addEventListener)
{
 elm.addEventListener('submit', CheckEmail, false);
}
else if (elm.attachEvent)
{
 var r = elm.attachEvent('onsubmit', CheckEmail);
}

function CheckEmail()
{
 var elm1 = GetElement("addressEmail");
 var elm2 = GetElement("addressEmailRepeat");
 if (elm1.value != elm2.value)
 {
  alert("<?UMBRACO_MACRO macroAlias="GetDictionary" item="alertEmailRepeat"></?UMBRACO_MACRO>");
  return false;
 }
 else return true;
}

function GetElement(elmname)
{
 var i;
 var oForm = document.forms[0];
 var itemcount = oForm.length;

 for (i=0;i<itemcount;i++)
 {
  if (oForm.elements[i].name != null)
  {
   if (oForm.elements[i].name.indexOf(elmname)>0)
   {
   return oForm.elements[i];
   }
  }
 }
 return null;
}

is working on a reply...
