javascript validation check on click condition from HTML

Question

I am new to JS. Please help me resolving the issue.

<tr>
<td align="CENTER">
<input type="SUBMIT" onclick="validate();location=www.somethg.com" value="Update">
</td>
<td align="LEFT">
<input type="BUTTON" value="Reset&nbsp;" onclick="reset()">
</td>
</tr>

Above code is a small piece taken which shall validate on click and will switch to location "somethg".

But i want if validate returns false then only after pressing update it should go to that location else not. How to add this condition. No jquery please.

show reset() and validate()

You can write another function for eg.

function validateAndRelocate() {
  if(!validate()) {
   location.href = "www.something.com"
  }
}

And replace

<input type="SUBMIT" onclick="validateAndRelocate()" value="Update">
