    validate_form_aplic();
    validate_form_login();
    validate_form_registration();
}
 catch (error)
 {
     alert(error);
 }
};

how to get it…
the error mean that one of my id,s is null but when i run the single function then it will work. why it will not work on multiple function…

i got it…

window.addeventhandler('load',function()
{
some stuff here.....
});

it will not load all the function, but it can do what i want…

Hi,

I’m glad you have it working, but if you place your JavaScripts at the bottom of your page, just before the closing </body> tag, then you should be able to omit using window.onload altogether.

Also, there are a couple of things about your validation code that could be tidied up a bit / made more generic.

If you can provide a simple working version of the form, then I’ll show you how.

Thank,s Pullo i will get it…
