Problem Validating Data

[ggrewe]

I am trying to validate a textbox field for a value that is not empty. I am using the following code. I added the code { alert(lcValue) ; } to test the value being passed. When the function fires, the alert "undefined" is displayed. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    <script language="javascript">
      function CheckValue(lcValue)
      {
      	{ alert(lcValue) ; }
      if (lcValue == " ")
         {
          return false
          }
      else
          {
          return true
          }
      }
    </SCRIPT>

...

    <tr><td align=right>Minister:<td><input type=text name=minister size=50 value=' ' onblur="return CheckValue(minister.Value)">

I think it should be value not Value.

Also use this.form.minister.value in your function parameter if it is in a form or use document.getElementById("minister").value by giving the textbox an id="minister".

Hope this was clear.

That was it, I had to pass the entire field name, all lowercase. Thanks for your help!
