this should be researched in the javascript archives:
google -> groups -> javascript
this is probably what you want
var mytest = document.myform.myfield.value;
if( mytest.toString() == "" )
alert( "No text in " + document.myform.myfield.name );
but i would suggest getting on that group..they are more experienced
with javascript...
