Denis, I really appreciate your sample here - it works nicely for
what you did for me. I have a couple of problems, though:
Your rewrite of the "checkInput" function works only for the "runner"
field and doesn't seem extensible for others I need. And the invocation
of the function is part of the "action=" code. So it seems that the
only field that can be checked is that one (runner), even when I extend
your template to all the fields I need to input and process.
Am I missing something in this?

<p>Basic Form:</p>
<form name="ques_form" id="ques_form"
action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>"
method="post" onsubmit="return checkInput();">
<table>
<tr><td>Name: </td><td><input type="text"
name="runner" id="runner" size="30"></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="2" align="center">
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit">
</td></tr>
</table>
</form>

Also, I checked my ISP regarding the"register_globals" option: it's
set "off". So I guess that whatever's causing my problems with the code
that used to work, but now isn't, is not that particular issue.
I'm pursuing expanding your template to add other fields (hence this
message), but it's difficult for me as a PHP newbie...as well as having
to work with this "production site" in times where it isn't likely to be
used. 8<}}
