How do I make this so that when someone submits the form they have an error if they forget to enter something. This is what I have so far but I am not sure if I need something like Onsubmit, and if I do what do I write things like that. Thanks

I'm not sure what all that code you posted was, but here is an example of a form validator:<script type="text/javascript">
function validate(){
error = "";
if(document.form1.name.value == ""){
error += "Please enter your name.\n";
}
if(document.form1.phone.value == ""){
error += "Please enter your phone number.\n";
}
if(error != ""){
alert("There were the following errors:\n\n"+error);
return false;
}
return true;
}
</script>
<form action="wherever.asp" name="form1" method="post" onsubmit="return validate();">
Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br>
Phone: <input type="text" name="phone"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit!">
</form>I hope that helps!
