ID Verification Fields

[JBL]

I have a form tied to a database for a user to create their own ID's. I would
like for them to have to enter their ID into two separate fields to ensure
accurracy. My question is, is there an easy way to do that in FrontPage '02,
or do I need to dig out my old cgi book?

Thank you.

That is easy enough. Just write a little JavaScript to compare the two
fields.
Something like:
If formfield1.value == formfield2.value (alt OK)
Else
cancel submission and throw up an alertbox.

Oh, I see. Next question for you. Since it won't allow me to edit the
automatically created ASP content, where would one put that script. It seems
to ignore the script when placed in the Head or Body. Thanks
