        <input type="password" name="oldpass" style="width:150px;" />
         
         </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>

What will trigger the validate() function? When you tab or switch the cursor to another textbox? This is what this does.

<html>
<head>
  <title></title>

<script language="javascript">

function validate() 
{
  // Verify that both passwords put in match. 
  if ( ( document.getElementById("password").value != document.getElementById("passwordverify").value ) ||
  document.getElementById("password").value.length == 0   )
  {
    alert("Both passwords must match.");
    // return false;  
  }

}

</script>
  
</head>

<body>



<p align="center">To reset your password, provide your current password</p>
<form id="form1"  name="form1" method="post" action="pcq.php">
    
     <table border="0" align="center" class="mytable2" style="margin-left:175px"  >
	 <tr>
         <td>Current Password</td>
         <td>
         
        <input type="password" name="oldpass" style="width:150px;" />
         
         </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
         	    <? $user=$_SESSION[myusername] ?>
		          <td><input type="hidden" name="usr" id="usr" value="<?php echo $user; ?>"style=" width:150px;" />
         </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
         <td>New Password</td>
         <td><input type="password" name="pass"  style="width:150px;" id="password" /></td>
       </tr>
	   <tr>
         <td>Repeat New Password</td>
         <td><input type="password" name="rpass"  style="width:150px;" id="passwordverify" onblur="validate()"/></td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
       
       
       <tr>
	   <td>
	   </td>
<td > <input type="submit" value="submit"  >
 <input type="reset" value="Reset"></td>

</tr>

Can I Use light box for showing message.

Member Avatar for samaru

What do you mean by "light box"?

Member Avatar for ayesha789

light box using jquey.

Member Avatar for almostbob

users may submit without filling in either password input so

<form id="form1"  name="form1" method="post" action="pcq.php" onsubmit='validate();'>

yes you can use a lightbox popup
instructions are in the lightbox docs,
RTFM
