Simple "I'm Pulling My Hair Out" Question

[trevorsg]

I think I just need another pair of eyes to look at this one.

I have a Javascript function called check() that is called when a form is submitted:


<form action="page.php" method="post" onsubmit="return check();">


I have dumbed down the JS function, just for debugging, and I still can't get it to run:

<script>
function check()
{
window.alert("It works!");
return true;
}
</script>


When I submit the form, it submits like normal and does not run the check() function. My other Javascript on the page works fine.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Seems to work OK for me. You might want to run the page through the HTML validator (http://validator/w3c.org/) and make sure there are no HTML syntax errors throwing things off.

I don't know but depending on browser do you have to have the <script> tag like this?:
<script type="text/javascript">
//code
</script>
