OK, I'm sure eveyone comes across this at somepoint. I'm trying to set up my forms so that certain fields are required. Should be easy with the Validate Form behavior, but that only works for text fields. And, of course, everyone only uses textfields in their forms (note dripping sarcasm). What are some tricks for making text fields, drop downs and radios required. I'm looking for either a Java solution that pops a message "Fill these feilds out: a, b, c" or an ASP solution that returns back to the page with some variable or URL string I can use to let the viewer know which ones aren't complete. I don't need to check what is in the fields, just if they are filled or not.(8')~

Try the 'Check Form' extension from <b>Yaromat</b>... it should do the trick nicely.

Well that didn't work. The extension doesn't appear to work if there is an insert or edit server behavior applied to the page. Any other ideas?

You must be doing something wrong (no offense) because I use this behavior on all my forms, whether they be insert, edit, or CDONTS email.
