Can you do java Script?
If yes, You might try something like this....
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
<!--
function formcheck() {
if (document.form1.YourFieldName.value == "") {
alert("Please fill in .....");
form1.YourFieldName.focus();
return false;
}
if (document.form1.YourFieldName.value == "") {
alert("Please fill in .....");
form1.YourFieldName.focus();
return false;
}
return true;
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<FORM ACTION="/....." NAME="form1" onSubmit="return formcheck(this)">
</FORM>

No. Not boat anchors. Though I'd seriously like to tie one around this
computers box and through it in a lake.....
However, I have a very long form that someone has to fill out and submit.
I do some server-side validation (my own if statements) and if something
isn't filled out, I semd the user back to the form.
This is what I would like to do:
1) change the background color of that particular question to a different
color. Easy. Piece of cake. Works.
2) since it is such a long form, I'd also like to scroll the page to that
particular question....via anchors. Ha! Nightmare!
Is it possible? Do I have to use cflocation? Can I do it another way?
cflocation is a nightmare, because then I lose what's filled in, and I don't
want to mess with passing all those form variables, but, if you tell me it's
the only way...well.....
Thanks for the help....
