AI Thread Summary
To make form fields required in HTML, the "required" attribute can be added to each input element. For example, modify the input fields in the provided code by adding `required` like this: `<input type="text" name="name" required />`. This ensures that users cannot submit the form without filling out these fields. Additionally, JavaScript validation can enhance user experience by providing immediate feedback. Resources such as W3Schools offer tutorials on HTML form validation and JavaScript techniques to further assist in implementing these features effectively.

I am new to web design so forgive me if I come off as ignorant. Would some one direct me to a page or give me information on how to make my submit form fields required? Here is my current code:

Code:
<form name="contact" action="process.php" method="post">
<label>Name</label><br />
<input type="text" name="name" /><br />
<label>E-Mail</label><br />
<input type="text" name="email" /><br />
<label>Message</label><br />
<textarea name="message" cols="50" rows="10"></textarea><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

Any help would be valuable. Thanks!

Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
