If the user does not fill in the Contact name field on a form, they get this
message:

[JavaScript Application]
Please enter a value for the realname field.

Now realname is the name of the field, and I must call it this to use the
email facilities of my domain host But I would prefer the message to say:-
Please enter a value for "Contact". Is this possible?

Also, can I change the title of the message window to something more
friendly than: [JavaScript Application]?

Below is the FrontPage 2003 code for the contact field...

<tr><td align="right"><em>Contact</em></td><td>
&nbsp;<!--webbot bot="Validation" b-value-required="TRUE"
i-minimum-length="1" i-maximum-length="100" -->
<input name="realname" value size="35" maxlength="100"><font
color="#FF0000"><span class="required"><font
size="1">*</font></span></font></td></tr>
 
Under FP Validation, you can assign a "friendly" name for the script to display when the user
doesn't complete the form field.
