FORMS, dropdown list required.

[baby_joker85]

I need an alert box to appear when a user has pressed the submit button and has not selected the right option on a dropdown list box. How can I make the option be checked to be required? Can anyone give me some code?

Hi!

Could you please specify whether you want a check for the entire listbox (any value can be selected, except maybe the first option, but one of the others must be) or whether the user has to select a special option in there. Your question lets me assume the latter and that doesn't make sense...

Cheers - Pit

I have just been searching the form to solve a problem i have got and i ended up here,

I am trying to make the dropdown list required, any option can be chosen apart from the first one, Any chance you could fill me in?
I am also need the same type of thing but for radio buttons.

Look up javascript validation scripts. This is very easy.
