I have been trying to set up a registration form for my website and I have the following error message pop up when I fill in the form:

 

Please enter a value for te "regtype" field

 

My html page is below and below that is my register.php page.

 

I think the problem is the selection box for the Type of registration.

 

Any assistance would be great.

 

 

Register.html

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Registration</TITLE>

<script Language="JavaScript">
<!--
function Form1_Validator(theForm)
{
  	if (theForm.regtype.value == "")
  {
    alert("Please enter a value for the \"regtype\" field.");
    theForm.regtype.focus();
    return (false);
  }
  	if (theForm.firstname.value == "")
  {
    alert("Please enter a value for the \"firstname\" field.");
    theForm.firstname.focus();
    return (false);
  }
  	if (theForm.lastname.value == "")
  {
    alert("Please enter a value for the \"lastname\" field.");
    theForm.firstname.focus();
    return (false);
  }
if (theForm.username.value == "")
  {
    alert("Please enter a value for the \"username\" field.");
    theForm.firstname.focus();
    return (false);
  }
if (theForm.email.value == "")
  {
    alert("Please enter a value for the \"email\" field.");
    theForm.email.focus();
    return (false);
  }	
  	if (theForm.password.value == "")
  {
    alert("Please enter a value for the \"password\" field.");
    theForm.email.focus();
    return (false);
  }
if (theForm.password.value != theForm.confirm.value)
{
	alert("The two passwords are not the same.");
	theForm.confirm.focus();
	return (false);
}
}

//--></script>
