I am a newbie to this and am having a problem with validation and keeping data that has been entered in other fields when submitting the form.
For the check boxes, I need a minimum of one selected. If one is not selected, a message box appears notifying that a check box has not been selected. When I click OK, the data in the other text boxes is removed as if the form is being reloaded. How can I prevent this from happening.
Is there a better way to validate the checkboxes. I have searched and most instances of validation refer to linking to an outside validation jsp. This can not be done for this situation. Any help would be most appreciated.
