Hi!

I can't get this dad-blasted form to work right.
I'm trying to do some error checking and then, if all is OK, submit the puppy.

If I make the button type SUBMIT, it moves on regardless of the error 
checking result. I've tried calling the validation routine from both the 
onSubmit method of the form and also from the onClick method of the button.

If I make the button type BUTTON, I can run the validation just fine, but 
when I then try to submit the form by multi.submit (where multi is the form 
name) I get a javascript error, "multi" is undefined.

The form is found at:

http://www.clayhead.com/eden/orderform.htm

ANY help will be vastly appreciated. If there's a better way to do this, 
I'm certainly open to it.
