Use a Javascript to validate the form.
like this
In the head
<script language="JavaScript">
function checkForm()
{
if (document.forms[0].firstname.value==''){
alert('Please complete the form.');
}else
document.forms[0].submit();
}
</script>
In the body
<form name="form1" method="post" action="/servlet/AddUserServlet">
<input type="text" name="firstname" class="text3">
<input type="submit" name="sub" value="Post" onClick="checkForm()">
