Hi there, can anybody tell me how I could manage it to get a actionscripted detection wether all boxes of a form have been filled out properly or not and wether the email-box entry contains an @-sign or not.  
I really need to know, I hope someone can help me,  
thx phoenix

[AS]//lets say your text box is called myText\_txt  
textProcess = myText\_txt.text  
if(textProcess.indexOf("@") != -1){  
//do some stuff  
}[/AS]

Thanks a lot for your answer, I´ll try that one. It is a little bit like the @-dtection in javascript, right? Sounds good, thx phoenix
