Question

Answer 1

+2 A:

Your function wants to take in the form element and your submit button doesn't send anything to the function. I'd assume it's not submitting because your function is erroring out and thus stopping the button as if it were returning false. Fix your JavaScript, try using Firebug to help you find these problems.

the way I often address this is to go in with firebug and trace through my onsubmit function

Answer 2

+1 A:

Try adding an onsubmit to your form tag:

<form  action="enterdb.php" method="post" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" onsubmit="return Checking(this);">

Then remove the onclick event from the submit button.

You need to pass a form object to the Checking function, hence the this. Also it's usually better to place the handler in the form tag as it'll be called when the user submits the form by either clicking the submit button or by pressing enter elsewhere in the form.

Answer 3

A:

generally, suggest that you comment out first clear.js and SpryValidationSelect.js, and then try run your code by adding one by one javascript file to clearly defined what is the file that been crashing with your inline code text.

also try to add name for your form and try like this:

function Checking(form){

  if(empty(window.myform.fname.value){

         alert("do nothing");

         }
  }

in a way to debug something, its best to try different method by which sometimes you will spot the not easier.

just my thought. gudluck
