[Javascript] Form validation

[Chris Tifer]

First, what is "form"?

If that's the exact syntax you're using, I'd have to suggest that form is
not pointing to a form. If you have a name on your form (for instance
"myForm"), do this:

var objForm = document.forms["myForm"]

Then try

objForm.elements[arrFields[i]].focus()

form by itself is nothing...

If that still doesn't work, show us your exact code and I bet we can solve
it.

Correct?
