Required fields referring back to checkbox

V

Virginia

I have a number of fields that need to be required ONLY if a checkbox is
checked first, to indicate the visitor is using this option. Is this possible
in FP without a lot of extra programming? I don't know how to have the other
fields refer to the check.

example:
[checkbox] Yes, I am using this option.
[textbox] info only required if checkbox is checked.

Thanks!

The message "info only required if checkbox is checked." will appear in the
text box if you use value="info only required if checkbox is checked.".

Example:
<input type="TEXT" name="Whatever" value="info only required if checkbox is
checked" value size="55">

Sorry, Dan. Maybe I wasn't clear.
I'm not worried about the message. What I'm looking for is to be able to
have a range of input fields refer back to a checkbox, to see if they are
required information. If the checkbox value is ON, then the following fields
need to be filled in.

Maybe this "required fields" javascript can be customized to alert users that
if a checkbox is checked, then an entry in a text box is required.
