Registration form requring fields that are not required

7/11/2011 3:22 pm | #1 sandy170299

I'm having some issues with my security assist created registration page. It is making fields required that I did not specify to be required. I went in after the fact and specified which fields (using the client validation wizard) should be required, but that hasn't affected anything. The non-required fields are still showing up as required. I'm attaching a zip file of my code. If you want the URL, just let me know. Thanks!

I see, when you submit the form, you are getting the error message:
Column 'storeWebsite' cannot be null

this means that in the data base, the column storeWebsite has been creaeted to not allow a null value.

you will need to edit the database directly using PHPMyAdmin or another mysql gui tool to set those columns to accept null values.

Jason, I swore I had all of the fields in the table set up correctly. Ooops - sorry about that! However, when I corrected that, it's still submitting the form if I leave a required field blank. For example, the StoreName field: Column 'storeName' cannot be null. Then, if I click the back button on the browser, it clears the whole form. Did I set up the client side script incorrectly? Thanks!

there is code missing from the page.

when you apply client validation to the page, it will add a script block in the head section that is missing from your page, try editing the client validation to have it recreate the code to see if it adds the script block to the head.

Jason, I'm using an included header and footer file on this page, so the <head> section is actually part of the included file. I have done this before many times, without a problem, so I'm not sure why it's not working now...
