Hi,

I try to answer : in a form, each element (radio button, input box, check boxes etc.) should have a name, which you tell via the 'name=xxxx' parameter within the HTML tag.

Now, once your tag has a name, you can address it via JavaScript, and then read its content and then verify it before sending the form on the web.

The bad new is that this check requires a few javascript code, hence if you don't know javascript it's hard to explain !...

Could sound like "MI-2" or more !!

And users must have Java enabled in their browsers as well.
