Validating Checkboxes

[Miguel Orrego]

Hi,

I have a form that is created dynamically from a recordset, this creates a
line for each record together with 2 checkboxes, Yes & No so the source
output would be something like this:

<p>Please indicate whether you still use each piece of software detailed
below:</p>
<form name="apps" method="POST" action="MyActio n">
<table width="600" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" >
<tr bgcolor="#9999F F">
<td><font color="#FFFFFF" ><strong> Software</strong></font></td>
<td><font color="#FFFFFF" ><strong>Requir ed?</strong></font></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Adobe Photoshop 7.0 7.0</td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="Yes" value="Adobe Photoshop 7.0 7.0">
Yes
<input type="checkbox" name="No" value="Adobe Photoshop 7.0 7.0">
No </td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Citrix ICA Client</td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="Yes" value="Citrix ICA Client">
Yes
<input type="checkbox" name="No" value="Citrix ICA Client">
No </td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Macromedi a Dreamweaver MX 6.0</td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="Yes" value="Macromed ia Dreamweaver MX
6.0">
Yes
<input type="checkbox" name="No" value="Macromed ia Dreamweaver MX
6.0">
No </td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>

And so on......

I want to ensure that either Yes or No has been checked for each line before
the form can be submitted, how can this be done through javascript? The
amount of lines in the form will vary.

Thanks.

Use radiobuttons instead of checkboxes. Default them all to "no".
