You use javascript if you want to do it in the browser. Ask in the javascripting forum or a moderator will move this thread for you when they read it. You can also search on google for "javascript form validation"

[Milo333]

function whichButton() {
If(radio.value==null){
alert("A Question has not been answered")
}
else{
alert("Please click on send")
}

Please bear in mind i am a begginner

You have neither passed nor declared radio in the function whichButton. You need to pass the form that contains the buttons to that function and then retrieve the values from them through that form.
