[Q]form validation js + php report missing fields next to actual field

[amkaos]

Hi:

i have simple form.

i use an external javascfipt file to validate required fields.... works fine if user has java turned on.

i have an external php file to validate after js .. it has separate error page listing missing fields..and a thank you page that works if form passes validation

i really want the php to report missing fields next to the actual boxes like the js does..

 

this is my jsbin link showing the html , css and js + preview window and how it works.::

this is my php file

Send_Questions.php

-------------------------------

in trying to put errors next to same fields, i changed this working HTML code snip:
<div class="input">
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" size="30" /><span class="emailError, emailError2"></span>

<div class="error" id="emailError">
<p stlye="float:left"/>Required: Please enter your email address
</div>

to this::

<div class="input">
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" size="30" /><span class="emailError, emailError2"></span>

<div class="error" id="emailError" value="<?php echo $error_message; ?>"><br>
<p stlye="float:left"/>Required: Please enter your email address
</div>

i also tried ::
<div class="error" id="emailError" <span>"<?php echo $error_message.='Required: Please enter your email address'; ?></span><br>
<p stlye="float:left"/>Required: Please enter your email address
</div>

the first snip is for js validation..it displays errors next to appropriate fields IF user java is turned on.
i wanted to keep the js validation and add the php validation using an external php file..
of course the php example doesnt work..
the $error_message comes from the .php file..
am i close?..

i have tried moving the tiny php line to other locations,,
also i tried with and without the <span> tag..
still i get taken to the error page..

thanx for lookin

i appreciate any help
