Hi. The form I am implementing has some basic workflow behind it. When the
user checks a box it opens up another section of the form - but the user
needs to complete all the fields in that section before being allowed to
progress.
However, the form has several ways to navigate away including a menu button
to go back to the main menu form, a next, previous, and close database
buttons. I want to ensure they have completed that section of the form
before navigating away.
Do I need to trap the validity of the form in each case or is there a way to
handle it generically so that an error is always raised no matter how the
user tries to navigate away from the form?
Is there a best practice to determine whether a form is valid (not in a data
sense but in a workflow sense e.g. all required fields are entered)?
Thanks!!
