javascript in php code causes page to display white


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi All,

Odd one this, I've got the following code (below) which is a simple log in form. The client wanted a pop to inform you when you've not completed a field and an asterix to appear.

Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.
This is fine. However, if you forget to enter some info, the pop up appears but the page behind goes blank, as if the rest of the page wont load until you click OK.

How can I stop this?


Thanks in advanced!
