2 things: enter doesn't work in IE & empty form

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 by admin

i have this search form that works well except for 2 things.

1) on IE when i hit enter instead of the Submit button, i do not get any result. with firefox, no problem.
2) when i hit submit or enter without putting anything on the search form, it outputs All data from the database.

any help to fix the issue?

Line number On/Off | Expand/Contract <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">function countryempty(){ if ( document.form.country.value == '' ) { alert('No search was entered!') return false; }}</script> <?$country = $_POST["country"]; // if page is not submitted to itself echo the formif (!isset($_POST['submit'])) { ?> <form method="POST" action="<? echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" onSubmit="return countryempty();"> <p><b>SEARCH</b> a City or Country <input type="text" name="country" size="32"><p> <p>
<input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p> </form> <? } else {?> <? $db_host = ''; $db_user = ''; $db_pass = ''; $db_name = '';$db_table = ''; $conn = mysql_connect($db_host,$db_user,$db_pass); mysql_select_db($db_name,$conn); // The database query follows
