Lead capture form validation without javascript

[ehuang]

Hi Guys

Is there a way to validated lead capture form fields without using javascript? in case user disables javascript in browser.

Thanks

You could do it server side, but that is likely to present other client side problems. For example, the manner in which you in turn inform the web visitor that there is a problem would become a bit convoluted.

Thanks for the fast reply!

Just to clarify, so client side validation will definately needs Javascript?

I'm currently working on a zencart website and I'm trying to replace the enquiry forms on zencart to Sugar's lead capture form, zencart do have server side validation for it's enquiry forms. (so it works when java is disabled)

Is there a way to pass on the enquiry form data to Sugar's after it has successfully passed validation on zencart?

i.e. User enquiries through zencart enquiry form -> information automatically submitted to Sugar's lead capture form to create lead.

Or will it be simpler to build a server side validation on Sugar.

Thanks

Sure, you could pass it after Zencart validates it.

You would just need to have your Zencart code insert the data after validation via the Sugar SOAP or REST API.
