validations

Hey Ray

Have a form where I am using validations and trying to create multiple options of messages depending on which input is blank / not blank

Basically, if both the first name or last name fields on the form are empty, I want the error message to say 'neither the first name nor last name can be blank'

but if one of the 2 fields has content, then I want the message to say 'first name cannot be blank' (or last name if the last name is blank and first name has content)

I *think* I am going wrong with the 2 <?php } else ?> but am not sure how to get them to work


<?php
if (ValidatedField('contact_522','contact_522')) {
if ((strpos((",".ValidatedField("contact_522","contact_522").","), "," . "1" . ",") !== false || "1" == "") || (strpos((",".ValidatedField("contact_522","contact_522").","), "," . "2" . ",") !== false || "2" == "")) {
if (!(false)) {
?>
<span class="text-element elementRequired">
<?php
if (ValidatedField('contact_522','contact_522')) {
if ((strpos((",".ValidatedField("contact_522","contact_522").","), "," . "1" . ",") !== false || "1" == "") && (strpos((",".ValidatedField("contact_522","contact_522").","), "," . "2" . ",") !== false || "2" == "")) {
if (!(false)) {
?>
neither
<?php //WAFV_Conditional contact.php contact_522(1,2:)

}

if (ValidatedField('contact_522','contact_522')) {
