oh, I didn't know you had mistakenly completed it on purpose. what I
do is go over forms when I get a return such as that and find and fix
the problem in context. sorry. I know of no way to figure out which
fields are marked in red. I do however have some comfort for you. in
the web content accessibility guidelines for the web at:
http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/
it is suggested that developers use means other than or in adition to
color to mark fields not filled in correctly.
On most other forms I've seen, either only that field is displayed,
you are placed on the first incorrectly or uncompleted field or the
field or fields that are incorrect are the only ones allowed. the
ones I like the most though are the ones that tell you to go back and
review and correct with no guidance. I like them because usually you
can figure out what went rong. forms are troublesome though because
some of what they ask for is so ambiguous and sometimes, if there is
something rong with the server you never seem to get it right.
