Basicly I'm trying to run through a list of form fields and see what hasn't been filled out.
I thought I'd try doing it with a function in PHP and set some bool variables to reload the page and have something like this:
under the inappropriate fields print("* fill this field out").
^_^field box here^_^
if ($noname)
print("fill this fieldout");
else
print("maybe a hint for newbies");

What you will do is have the form submit to a PHP script. That script will check the user-provided values and provide a refreshed version of the form which gives the user error messages.
Without submitting the form, you can't get PHP to work on the values.
