Checking Field

[TheConeHead]

I have a script I got somewhere that pops a calendar and when you click on a date it populates a text box back ijn the original window - well, I want to run a check when the field is populated - I tried just putting an onchange on the text box but that does not seem to work - short of getting into the calendar script, how could I go about this?

It sounds like the easiest way would be to edit the calendar script. To do so without this, you'd need to periodically "poll" the field (i.e. check its value)... but much easier to edit the script.

The reason the onchange event doesn't fire is most likely because the field value is being set programatically.

Hope this helps,
Dan

just another thought: maybe putting a function in the onfocus event of the page itself. if you're populating the field and then closing the calendar window, this event may trigger when the parent page comes back into focus...

just a thought.
