checkbox help needed

[jeep@55.usenet.us.com]

Im totally new to javascript. Im working on a webpage that I need to
make sure the user has checked at least one answer to each question
in the list. I cant seem to figure out the logic or something.

All the input lines in html look like this:

1.&nbsp;<INPUT TYPE=RADIO NAME="PCLM1" VALUE="disagree strongly">
not at all<INPUT TYPE=RADIO NAME="PCLM1" VALUE="disagree ">
a little bit&nbsp; <INPUT TYPE=RADIO NAME="PCLM1" VALUE="neutral" >
moderately <INPUT TYPE=RADIO NAME="PCLM1" VALUE="agree">q uite a bit <INPUT TYPE=RADIO NAME="PCLM1" VALUE="agree strongly">extre mely<BR>

All are named PCLMx

there are 17 of these. I need a script that will tell me when one or more
of the answers were not checked at all so the user can complete the form
and I can move on.

I have the post line working ok to call my script, just not the logic:

<form method="POST" action="http://www.site.com/cgi-bin/mil_pclm.pl" onSubmit="retur n check_form(this );">


Ive looked all over the web and cant seem to find an answer to this particular
problem.

I need your help :)
Thank you so much!
Jeff

Tested successfully in IE.

<script type="text/javascript" language="javas cript">
function check_form(f)
{
var forgot;
for (var i=1; i<18; i++)
{
forgot=true;
var l=f.elements["PCLM"+i].length;
for (j=0; j<l; j++)
{
if (f.elements["PCLM"+i][j].checked==true) forgot=false;
}
if (forgot)
{
alert("You forgot one. Number: "+i);
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
</script>
