what have you done so far? let me give you the general idea:

onsubmit of you form2 you have to call a javascript function that checks for the value of the organisation-field and when you need the mail field too then simply check it too.

please post the code you already have ... even the relevant code for this form.

kind regards

Tip for next time: when posting code for client-side problems/questions, post the generated client-side code, not your JSP code. It makes deciphering the problem a lot easier.
i want to make it nonmandatory only when i pass organisation=link communication. this is one of my organisation list.
I'm not sure exactly what you mean here. Do you mean the organisation name is passed in the URL? The general idea is simple enough. If the organisation name is not passed, then test for email, otherwise there's no need to test, thus making it non-mandatory. For example:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. // assuming org is reference to passed organisation if exists
  2. if (!org) {
  3.  // test for email...
  4. }
To give something more specific, you'll have to give more details.
