[Javascript] multiple onSubmit events not working

[Ed Curtis]

 I got it working now. I did the return (function1() && function2() &&
function3()) as outlined but it still didn't work correctly. What I had to
do was make sure every function returned true just by adding it to the end
of each function. Thanks again.
