Why does Firefox 5 send the form to the server when onsubmit = false with external javascript?

Try, instead of returning validate(this), returning false. If the form is not submitted then, try returning validate(this), but, in that function, before actually returning the returnValue, try alerting it to make sure it's actually false. Maybe it's due to your focusing elements.

Maybe you could first return the returnValue, but do the focussing via setTimetout('focus()', intervalInMillisecons)?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
