Hi All,

user should not able to submit without selecting those choice variable.

Hi,

In your onSubmit() client script you can check for values & if it is empty then you need to use return false; to abort the action.

For eg.

function onSubmit()
{
 if(g_form.getValue('field1')=='') //missed an extra roundbracket
{
 return false;//abort action
}
}

Hi Varma,

Please try like this:

Replace your variable1 and 2 with your variable name

function onSubmit() {
    if (g_form.getValue('your variable1') == '' || g_form.getValue('your variable2') == '') {
        g_form.addErrorMessage('Fields can not be empty');
        return false;
    }
}

Hi Willem, Thanks for reply

What if user need to select any one of the variable like variable1 or varible2.

Thanks,

Then you can check and abort only if both are empty, like so:

function onSubmit() {
    if (g_form.getValue('your variable1') == '' && g_form.getValue('your variable2') == '') {
        g_form.addErrorMessage('Fields can not be empty');
        return false;
    }
}
