I have a simple form that emails the results. Is there a
way to keep it from sending fields that are left empty?

Not when using the FP Form Handler. You would have to use custom written ASP, PHP, etc. to
accomplish this

yes, right click the field, select properties, then the 'validate'
button.....click the option "Required" and it should also have a field for min
and max characters required e.g. you could just have it so *something* is put in
the field or else require a minimum of 4 characters e.g. a phone number might
usually have 8 numbers (minimum), so you want the phone number field to have a
min of 8 and a max of say 20, or something more reasonable

actually you CAN - with 'validation' on each field - have fields that are
'required' or require numbers only or alpha characters only or a certain
(minimum) length etc etc - basic validation, but it won't send the form until all
validations are complied with - and that's using FP's own validation features -
you can do the same with Javascript.

Form Field Validation: All that does is force the user to put something in the field, which is not
the issue. The issue is that all of the field do not need to be completed, and the ones that are not
complete will be included in the email when using the FP Form Handler
