It will ignore any checkboxes that aren't checked, because it doesn't even see them. In other words if a check box isn't check it never gets sent as a formvariable and therefore is never checked and is never sent back. Radio buttons I would think if neither is checked then again you would run into the same problem. To solve the issue for the radio buttons set a hidden value for the radio button you wish to test to null. ieMake sure it is at the end of your form. Then if neither radio button is checked and the form is submitted the hidden value takes presidence and is of course blank and rejected by the script.You can do the same thing with the checkbox, but I am not sure why you would other than to force them to check it.
