### Form Validation and Object Inspection

Source: https://github.com/paleobiodb/data_service/blob/master/html/admin/person.html

Utility function for inspecting object properties and a validation function for the person registration form. The validation checks for required fields and specific role-based password requirements.

```javascript
function showProperties ( obj ) { var result = ""; for ( var i in obj ) { result += "o." + i + " = " + obj[i] + "<br>\n"; } document.write ( result ); } function checkForm() { var frm = document.forms[0]; var errors = ""; // checks if ( frm.first_name.value == "" ) errors += "Enter the first name.\n"; if ( frm.last_name.value == "" ) errors += "Enter the last name.\n"; if ( frm.name.value == "" ) errors += "Enter the name.\n"; if ( frm.reversed_name.value == "" ) errors += "Enter the reversed name.\n"; if ( frm.gender.value == "" ) errors += "Enter the gender.\n"; if ( frm.email.value == "" ) errors += "Enter the e-mail address.\n"; if ( frm.institution.value == "" ) errors += "Enter the institution.\n"; if ( frm.country.value == "" ) errors += "Enter the country.\n"; if ( frm.role.value == "" ) { errors += "Enter the role.\n"; } else if ( frm.role.value == "authorizer" ) { if ( frm.plaintext.value == "" ) errors += "Authorizers must have a password.\n"; } // Report errors if ( errors != "" ) { errors = " Errors \n" + "---------------------------------------\n\n" + errors + "\n" + "---------------------------------------\n\n" + "See the tip sheet for instructions."; alert ( errors ); return false; } return true; }
```
