notes to self re. the onsubmit attribute
Raw
onsubmit.md
  • don't forget the return: it's onsubmit="return someFunction()" not onsubmit="someFunction()"
  • if you are relying on an external javascript file to provide someFunction(), the function mustn't be wrapped in anything else. this means, no $(document).ready() or the like. as a result, the external script needs to go just before the closing </body> tag rather than in the <head> in order for everything to load in the right order.
