Claude,
Brian and David have suggested client-side approaches, but you can also
make a checkbox field required, using server side validation. Just set it
up with a hidden field in the format, your_checkbox_field_required, the
same as your other required fields. Be sure not to preselect any of the
checkboxes, or you'll defeat the validation.

Please respond to cf-talk
Using forms placing "required" and "message" inside the input tag allows
you
to ensure that the user enters input in order for the form to be submitted
is it possible to have the same functionality over check box input when
there are several check boxes to select from for the one input variable
without any initially being checked and that unless the user checks one of
the them the form will not be submitted
I look forward to your comments
Kind Regards
