If John's solution doesn't appeal to you, add an onsubmit handler to the
form, e.g. onsubmit="return verify(this)". The handler function "verify"
would initialize a variable to false. It would then loop over all of the
options; if any one was set it would set the variable to true and exit
the loop. If the variable is false, put up a JavaScript alert telling
the user "hey, you cannot leave the option buttons blank". Then the
function should return the value of that variable.
