i have here a php code that shows a form validation.
this code have no problem, but i dont want it to show in the upper part of the form,
i want it to show as alertbox, but showing all the message that are empty not one by one.

Example:
alertbox
You are required to complete the following fields: First name, Contact no., Job title, First guess.

Thank you.

$problem = FALSE; //no problem

	

	//check value

	$themessage = "You are required to complete the following fields: ";

	if (empty($fguess)){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter a valid First guess';

	}

	if (empty($sguess)){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter a valid Second guess';

	}

	if (empty($tguess)){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter a valid Third guess';

	}

	if (empty($_POST['f_name'])){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter your First name';

	}

	if (empty($m_name)){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter your Middle name';

	}

	if (empty($l_name)){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter your Last name';

	}

	if (empty($h_address)){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter your Home address';

	}

	if (empty($email)){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter your Email Address';

	}

	if (empty($contact)){

	$problem = TRUE;

	print '<br/>Pls. enter your Contact no.';

Hi there. You may need some javascript for this. This is a just a simple example to show you how you may go about it. I have done using the php code sample you have given.

<?php

$problem = FALSE; //no problem

    

    //check value

    $themessage = "You are required to complete the following fields: ";

    if (empty($fguess)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.= 'First guess';

    }

    if (empty($sguess)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',Second guess,';

    }

    if (empty($tguess)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',Third guess';

    }

    if (empty($_POST['f_name'])){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',First Name';

    }

    if (empty($m_name)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',Middle Name';

    }

    if (empty($l_name)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',Last Name';

    }

    if (empty($h_address)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',Home Address';

    }

    if (empty($email)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',Email Address';

    }

    if (empty($contact)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',Contact No';

    }

    if (empty($job)){

    $problem = TRUE;

    $themessage.=',Job Title';

    }


    //Print alert box with error message if there is a problem

    if($problem) {

	print("<script>alert('$themessage')</script>");

    }

?>

Use array and then implode it and then echo that variable in alert !!!!!!
