Re: Form - response required?

Maybe you've already received a reply about this, but you need to put this
in your form tag:

<FORM NAME="myform" onsubmit="check()">

and then this script somewhere in your document.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function check()
{
if(document.myform.name.value == " ")
{
alert("Please enter your name")
return false
}
else
{
document.myform.submit()
}
}
</SCRIPT

You need to add an if statement, before else, similar to the one above, for
each form field. For example:
if(document.myform.email value == " ")

etc.
