Re: [validation] Re: Form Does Not Submit On Mac

you're not missing anything. i suppose i should have been specific in
stating that the script doesn't work in IE Mac. you should be able to rely
on your server validation in that instance.

i can't remember the exact reason behind all of this, but i recall that it
is a problem in the Mac scripting engine.

Thanks for the reply!

This allows the button to submit...however validation is skipped on
Macintosh after the below code is added the the validation.js file.

Is there something that I'm missing here?

Thanks!
