Required field validation Select Forms

[ryans]

1) Script Title: Required Field Validation

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...uiredcheck.htm

3) Describe problem:
someone had posted on how to check if forms are being filled out or not. It looks for the word Select and if it's still in that state it will prompt the user.

It works fine when using chrome, but IE8 or IE9 it just skips that part. See screenshots.


Here is the code:

<script language="JavaScript">
