Javascript to Execute Before Post
Hi, I'd like some javascript to execute when a user clicks "post" when either begining a thread or replying. Basically for many complicated reasons (too much detail to provide in this post) we're needing to check the post for a certain character set and if the post or title contains this character set we don't want to allow the user to post. I know the Lithium out of the box content filters do forms of this, but for numerous reasons that will not meet our needs. Does anyone know how I can make this javascript execute upon the "post" action? I'm unsure which API call is best.

Hi there,
It's buried in the java docs, but it's there. If you look at the "Board" section and click on 'Topics" you should see the posting information as well as the query arguements to include in the POST.
The initial posting of the topic will return an ID that will then be used to link up replies.
Example POST: http://yourcommunity.lithium.com/communitid/restapi/vc/boards/id/boardid/messages/post/?message.subject=hey!
Hope this helps!
