Your easiest solution (obviously, my opinion) would be to head over to
Dan Switzer's site and use his amazing qForms JavaScript library. It
takes all the pain out of doing JS validation and it's incredibly
robust. His API literally has a changedFields() method that does all
the work for you. You would simply do:

objForm = new qForm("myFormName");
alert( objForm.changedFields );

That's it. No need for your own hidden fields or anything. I'm telling
you, Dan has done an incredible job of abstracting away the
complexities of JavaScript:
