Required Feild Script + Form Submit New Window HELP!

[ubh]

I have two scripts.
The first one is to require certain fields I have in a form are filled out.
The second one is to open a new window with height/width control of the new window.

My problem is that when the scripts are running as separate scripts I get the "fields required script" to pop up its message
if a field is not filled out, but also the new window pop up too.

The process should be
A)if you get notified a field is not filled out you must fill it out before the new window pops up.

Not
B)Pop up the new window if you get a field needs to be filled out...

So my thoughts were to combine the scripts together so that the window pops up when my field validation is complete.. but I am having trouble.. and this is why I am here.

how would I combine these two?

Script One (Form Fields Required)

var FormName = "nominationForm";
var RequiredFields = "Your_First_Name,Your_Last_Name,Your_Title,Your_Address,Your_City,Your_State,Your_Zip,Your_Telephone,Your_Email,Confirm_Email,Your_School,Your_Principal,relation ship,Their_First_Name,Their_Last_Name,Their_Title,Their_District,Their_School,Their_Address,Their_City,Their_State,Their_Zip,How_Many_Years";
function ValidateRequiredFields()
{
var FieldList = RequiredFields.split(",")
var BadList = new Array();
for(var i = 0; i < FieldList.length; i++) {
var s = eval('document.' + FormName + '.' + FieldList[i] + '.value');
s = StripSpacesFromEnds(s);
if(s.length < 1) { BadList.push(FieldList[i]); }
}
if(BadList.length < 1) { return true; }
var ess = new String();
if(BadList.length > 1) { ess = 's'; }
var message = new String('\n\nThe following field' + ess + ' are required:\n');
for(var i = 0; i < BadList.length; i++) { message += '\n' + BadList[i]; }
alert(message);
return false;
}


function StripSpacesFromEnds(s)
{
while((s.indexOf(' ',0) == 0) && (s.length> 1)) {
s = s.substring(1,s.length);
}
while((s.lastIndexOf(' ') == (s.length - 1)) && (s.length> 1)) {
s = s.substring(0,(s.length - 1));
}
if((s.indexOf(' ',0) == 0) && (s.length == 1)) { s = ''; }
return s;
}


Script Two (Open New Window with Width/Height Control)


function sendme()
{
window.open("","myNewWin","width=500,height=300,toolbar=0");
var a = window.setTimeout("document.nominationForm.submit();",500);
}

var FormName = "nominationForm";

if (message != null) {
alert(message);
return false;
} else {
sendme();

Hi Master_Script_Maker..

Thank you SOOO MUCH for taking the time to help me with this its been bugging me.

I tried your version and at first I got an error from IE7 that said I needed to add a "}" at the very end of the script so I did and I don't get an error upon the page loading.. how ever I do get one when I click submit now. It says the error is on line 242 but all that is their is a form input feild.. I am confused.
