Sorry but that does not work. I am using FP2003 and when I use validation and
make line as required field all that happens is when submit pressed it leaves
a empty space and forwards form!!!

It should work...

You need Javascript turned on in your browser.

There are several validation options e.g. required field, min and max no# of
characters required & allow/disallow certain types of characters eg a field
called "phone" where you may want to allow only numbers, not letters as the
valid data entry for that field.

It shouldn't send the form unless all fields are completed. But if a user
types the [space] bar in an empty field, that counts as "filling in the
field" and therefore the validation sees it as a character and sends the
data.

I'm sure custom-written scripts can be written to disallow the [space] as a
'proper' character in terms of alpha, numeric or symbol.
