I mean you have to fill it in before you can send the form.

[Splinter]

just check the field has been filled in..

[nets]

<?php
if($pet == '') die('You did not fill in one of the required fields.');
?>


Edit: Put that just after you get the vars from the user.

[Splinter]

or

if(!$pet) {
echo "You did not fill in one of the required fields!";
exit();
}


the ! just check that the string $pet contains data..

u could proboly do it activly with js, by adding the onclick hander to the submit button, and checking values are entered in the form feiled, retruning faluce if not and poping up whats missing "/

[Splinter]

I do that with php anyway since I usually include the html form in with the php document and use a javascript alert to warn them what needs filing in ;)
