Are your check boxes > required? Is the script breaking or the redirect?Bob: although I thought I'd read that there was a 255character limit when redirecting, I copied and pastedsome of the redirected URLs and they were waaaay over255, even before adding in all of the check boxes. Andit's working. So I'm not sure what's going on there.I converted the form a bit at a time, adding therelevant code to each set of radio buttons (I'm notrequiring the check boxes), then trying the validationby leaving out a field. All worked perfectly until (ofcourse) I added the last set of radio buttons. Then,strangely, the validation code reports an error withthe email address not being valid(error=3&mailerror=1) although it in fact a validemail address.I will continue to play with it. I still have to addthe code to set the required radio buttons tovalue=: maybe somehow that will fix the otherstrange problem.Thanks again.__________________________________________________Do You Yahoo!?Bid and sell for free at http://auctions.yahoo.com-------------------------------------------------------------Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server.To end your Mail problems go to
