thanks for the quick response!!!
On further notice, I see that the red background alert works in Safari on my MAC and Explorer on my PC. But it does not work in either FireFox version 2.0.0.20 on PC or FireFox version 3.0.12 on MAC. Is there a way to get it to work in FireFox?
Here is the spry code for the first two text fields. I haven't changed anything yet, since discovering that it seems to be a FireFox issue.
var sprytextfield1 = new Spry.Widget.ValidationTextField("sprytextfield1", "none", {validateOn:["blur"]});
var sprytextfield2 = new Spry.Widget.ValidationTextField("sprytextfield2", "email", {validateOn:["blur"]});
