QFC: Client-validation but not on all buttons?

Hi! Yes - sorry - I forgot to put the QFC flag on my subject ... (and I also _all the time_ forget to use answer all instead of answer) Bertrand's way with JavaScript sounds nice ... but pushes me back to "how can I call a certain form without using "?_qf_formname_display=true". Or how do you handle that? I always have this problem - starting from the moment I load my frameset (because I use QFC to show lots of forms simultaneously which actually works fine) So - do I need a form loader script (consisting of a simple form that loads the real form) or is there another way? As Bertrand asks for an example (quite hard to cut it down to be understandable): I have a form which shows an address (from a DB). In there are Buttons: <new> <previous> <next> <delete> In all Actions besides <delete> the first thing I do is save the values to the DB. So I need validation for all the actions besides for <delete>. If the data is incorrect but the user wants to delete it anyway - it's fine but not in any other case. But for delete I still want to call the controller ... JavaScript or whatever is OK with me as the project only runs on a defined set of computers (with IE) - 1 at a time.
