Bypassing required form field with email submission

[murrays]

I have designed a form that has several required fields. I have set the Common Properties as "Required" on the appearance tab in the Field Properties. This form has a Submit button that uses JavaScript to email the attached form. Javascript: this.mailDoc(true, "accountupdates@cwlp.com",
"", "", "Application for Termination of Service"

If the required fields are not filled in and the user clicks the submit button, it will send the file without all the required fields being completed.

Is this normal for this to occur when submitting via email or have I coded something incorrectly?

Submitting via email is not actually submitting at all - it's emailing!!
This property will only work with a true submit i.e. form data sent to a specific url.

Ahhhhh, I see you have a machine that goes Bing!
