Hi there,
I need to make the browser redirect then do return test(form) but i dont know how to do this.

Can someone explain how to do this for me?

Thanks.

you can't "redirect then return" with javascript once redirected you lose any control over the browser.

OR

is it that you want to return to a page after processing a form (and you can't do the with javascript either.

I want the browser to be redirected to a page and then do return test(form) because the page it is redirecting to has the same form on as the page it has been redirected from when you click the button.

Get what im saying?

If i cant do this by javascript how could i do this.

Get what im saying?

you want to go from a form to exactly the same form on a different page?? Why?

The homepage for my site has a form on it. There is also a from on another page. I want it to display the results from the form on the homepage to be displayed on the other page, not the homepage.

The form is values entered incorrect displays an error message in a div. This is done by Javascript. I dont want the errors to be displayed on the homepage instead on the other page which will display the results.

So not redirecting then, just passing form results. So what server side code do you have available?

Ok.
My javascript code is:

	function Test(form)
	   {
		if ( !Test(form) )
		return false;
		return true;
	   }
	function Test(form)
	   {
		str = document.Form1.dom.value;
		if ( str == "" )
		   {
			document.getElementById('error').innerHTML = "\\nThe text field is blank.\\n\\n";
			document.Form1.dom.focus();
			return false;
		   }
		for ( var i = 0; i < str.length; i++ )
		   {
			var ch = str.substring(i, i + 1);
			if (((ch < "a" || "z" < ch) && (ch < "A" || "Z" < ch) && (ch < "0" || "9" < ch)) && ch != '-')
			   {
				document.getElementById('error').innerHTML = "The text feild has illegal characters! Use only letters and numbers or a '-'";
				form.dom.value = "";
				document.Form1.dom.focus();
				return false;
			   }
		   }
		return true;
	   }

Need anything else to help me?

server side code NOT client side.

Your receiving page has to process and display the values.
