Howard -
Thanks - that's a start. Unfortunately I need(ed) a way to stop the form
submission. I'm executing code that has a callback to tell me it's done.
$('form').observe("form:prepareforsubmit", function(event) {
if(!callbackExecuted){
event.stop(); //this won't stop the form submitting
executeCodeThatCallsBack(); // the callback is meant to
re-submit the form
}
});
However, I am able to override the initialize method of Tapestry.FormEvent
Tapestry.onDOMLoaded(function() {
Tapestry.FormEvent.prototype.initialize = function(form)
{
this.form = $(form);
this.result = true;
this.firstError = true;
this.form.formEvent = this; // THIS IS THE CHANGE
};
$('form').observe("form:prepareforsubmit", function(event) {
var form = event.target;
var formEvent = form.formEvent;
formEvent.result = false; // THIS BOOLEAN CONTROLS WHETHER OR
NOT THE FORM SUBMITS
});
});
I'd rather not have to override that constructor (for obvious reasons).
I'm in no way a javascript guru so maybe there would be a cleverer way
of doing this. If you're still hammering out the Javascript API, please
take this into consideration.
Keep up the good work!

In 5.0.11-SNAPSHOT you can observe the "form:prepareforsubmit" event
on the Form object.
By observe, I mean all the Protoype stuff:
$(form).observe("form:prepareforsubmit", function() { ... });

I've got some javascript that I want to execute AFTER the client-side
validation has passed but BEFORE the actual form submission.
I've tested out adding my own Tapestry.Validator so that I could simply
have a hidden form element that executes last(being placed before the
</t:form> tag), but I have no idea where to poll to see whether all
prior validations passed already.
Can someone give me an idea for how to handle this?
thanks,
