Lotus Version 8.0.2
Everything works fine in this code until I add the line of code for the “BillFold” field.
After I enter that section of code, than it seems like it goes in a loop.
The “BillFold” field is a dialog list field and it’s position is the last field
on the form.
In this field, I have the call for the validation in the “OnBlur” event.
The code for the JavaScript call is "validate(this)
Any ideas why this is happening? What do I have coded incorrectly?
Thanks much for any comments or assistance.

The code listed below is in the JSHeader section.
//The Input Validation Function for all required fields on a form.
function validate(){
var validatemsg;
var validateflag;
validateflag = "false";
var serviceOK = 0;
This is the code that seems to give me a problem.
if(document.forms[0].BillFold[0].selected){
validatemsg="FIELD ERROR: Please select a value for the Billing Folder.";
validateflag="true";
document.forms[0].BillFold.focus()
}
