Prevent to submit form while checking for Current Password?

Question

Hi,
I use CGI::Ajax to check password on blur event of Password textbox field and disabled the submit button (by defualt submit button is active) if current password is wrong using jquery $('#submit_btn').attr('disabled'); It's working fine for me.

But when user enter wrong password and click on Submit button directly without using tab key. It's not disabled the submit sometimes..

So Pls give any idea to solve this problem..

Thnx in advance...

Answer 1

do not disable your button when password is wrong, but enable it if password is ok. ie : default button state is disable. Becomes active if password field is ok

Answer 2

Check the password when "onclick" event on the submit button.
