    doc2form - matching field values

    Hi, I am using doc2form which is working well. The only problem I have and cannot seem to figure out is the following and would really appreciate help with it if anyone has any ideas...

    My client has asked that there are 2 field inputs:-

    1. email address

    2. confirm email address

    The idea is that the value of (1) and (2) need to match in order for the form to submit, otherwise a message pops up saying they don't match and please try again...

    Ordinarily I suppose this would be easy on a flat page, just put in the appropriate JS and do an onsubmit in the form tag, however I am not sure where it is I need to be putting the JS or even if this is the right approach with doc2form.

    I have tried to talk the client out of it, but alas they are adament they want both fields. So bang goes the easy route.

    If anyone has a suggestion please do let me know!

    Hi Abi,

    At present, D2F does not support this, as umbraco does not support this in the editor.  You can create a custom data type that would allow for the compare validator.

    You may also try adding the compare validator into the code of D2F.  The code should be in app_code if you used the v4 version of D2F.

    Hi Case,

    Thanks for the reply - I'm very new to Umbraco and so only slowly finding my way around it (big learning curve, short deadline - great!). Any cues on how to go about implementing your first suggestion of a custom data type allowing for the compare validator?

    Sorry if I'm missing the obvious...
