How to compare two fields using Javascript
In this article we will describe how to create a simple form with RSForm!Pro with two email fields.
The following script will be used to compare the value of these fields so you can get a confirmation that the data inuted by the user is correct.
You can start by creating a new form and add 'Compare' as 'Form Title' and 'Form Name', second you will need to add two 'Textbox' fields named 'email1' and 'email2' and finally add a 'Submit Button' named 'Compare'. While editing this button, add in the 'Additional Attributes' area the following snippet:
onclick="return checkEmail('email1', 'email2');"
After you've setup these fields, go to the "CSS and Javascript" tab and paste the following code:
<script type="text/javascript"> function checkEmail(theForm) { if (document.getElementById('email1').value != document.getElementById('email2').value) { alert('Those emails don\'t match!'); return false; } else { return true; } } </script>
Click "Save" and test this form, you should receive an alert box if their values don't match.
