If the extent of your validation is simply whether or not a field is blank, you could use this.
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica">code:</font><HR><pre><script language="javascript"><!--
function Validate()
{
for (i=0;i<document.forms[0].elements.length;i++)
{
if (document.forms[0].elements[i].value=="")
{
alert("yo fool, you left " + document.forms[0].elements[i].name + " blank");
document.forms[0].elements[i].focus();
return false;
break
}
}
}
//--></script>[/code]
and your form would look like this...
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica">code:</font><HR><pre><body>
<form><input type=text name=text1><input type=text name=text2><input type=text name=text3><input type=text name=text4></form>
<a href=javascript
:Validate()>Validate</a>
</body>[/code]
I think that'll work reasonably well in both major browsers.
