Make dialog box fields mandatory

Defining a dialog box field as "mandatory" only works for some types of fields. For example, it works for a text field, but it does not work for other types, like date.

Solution

Use "savecall." See http://docs.day.com/en/home/communique_3/docucq355/programming/libraries2/cfclibrary/cfccontrols18/cfccontrols0/cfccontrols2.html for details.

Additional information

Currently, "mandatory field" applies to text fields only.
