I am using cfform for a CC payment form, and validating the CC number etc..
with the cfform "validate=credicard" paramater. This is all fine as usual.

I have a toggle in my form to show or hide particular fields depending on a
radio button selected (Pay CC or Bank Tfr). If the CC payment fields are
hidden (user has selected to pay by Bank Tfr), I don't want the validation for
those fields to run. If they select CC payment, the validation should run.
Validation is onSubmit.

I am trying to find a way of disabling or re-enabling the validation on given
cfform fields. Have scoured the net, forums etc.. but just can't find anything.

Does anyone know how this could be acheived?

Many Thanks in advance.

Usually if you disable the field (disable AND hide it) then noting
will run over them, no javascript (client side validation), no server
side script...

You can actually validate the fields rather than using the onSubmit of cfform.
E.g:- Use the validate parameter in the cfinput

Hi AbhiFusion, thanks for your suggestion, but I don't know if I am sure I understand what you are suggesting. Could you elaborate?

Thanks

Just for example:-
You must be using a text field so that user can enter the credit card number.
And this is what you want to validate. In this case use following code

<cfinput type="Text" validate="creditcard" name="creditCard">
