Summary | 0006605: Javascript form validation | ||||
Description | Is Mantis considering any type of client-side form validation? The server-side checks must remain, of course, but a little JavaScript can improve the user experience (no fussing about with back buttons and form expiration). I have looked at several open-source issue trackers recently and have been most impressed with Eventum's form validation: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/other/eventum/ I like Mantis better, of course, and picked it for our internal tool. :) | ||||
Additional Information | The Eventum solution seems fairly typical of form validation. From my cursory examination, it seems to involve the following:
Eventum also has some additional code present which turns the field background back to white (and hides the caution sign) once something has been entered. If there is interest, I may be able to contribute code. | ||||
