Hi  am having trouble valiating my radio buttons before submiting the values into my php file where these values will be written to my C2.txt file.
form1.html file
[code]
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function validate_radio(frm)
{
alert("inside function");


var i = 0;
while( i < document.form1.select[i].checked) // enter
  {
    {
            return true;
              i++;
      }
  else
    {
          alert("You did not select a value");
        return false;
        i++;
    }

  }

-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
  <center>
  <form name = "form1" method="post" action="handler4.php">
      Mr.X <input type="radio" name="select" value="Mr.X "> <br />
Tom Cruis <input type="radio" name="select" value="Tom Cruis " ><br />
  <input type="submit" name="submit" value="send" onClick="return validate_radio(this.form1)";>
[/code]

At the moment when i click on submit button, it goes into my php file, not even validating it before it dose that. Cany somebody help pls as this is urgent. Thanks
I'm not sure what you think you're interating through with that while loop condition... you need to move through all of the .elements, find out if there are of type = 'checkbox', and then see if they're checked or not.
