(I am re-posting this question to the list because I did not get any type of
response. I do get an e-mail telling me my post has been accepted to the
list.  I also get my own question in my In-Box, so I know I'm getting
through.  
If there is any reason I'm getting no responses;
I.E. Lack of information,
Not clearly describing the problem,
I ask silly questions,
I don't seem to have shown any effort to solve the issue,
I don't contribute any useful information to this list,
I have lousy list etiquette,
I have such a bad case of halitosis traces of the stench are carried along
with my e-mails,
Its exam week,
My signature is offensive. . .

PLEEEAASSEEE let me know ;-P . . . .)

I have a foundation ic checkout type form that includes a check box to
remove their chosen products, which zeros out the quantity of the displayed
product description to ZERO by acting as a submit button when pressed.

<INPUT TYPE=checkbox NAME="[quantity-name]"
onClick="this.form.action='[process-target]', this.form.submit()" VALUE=0>

The problem is my form also has a profile called formcheck which checks the
required text input fields:

<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_form_profile VALUE="formcheck">

[set formcheck]
          &fail=@@MV_PAGE@@
          fname=required Sorry, we need your first name!
          lname=required Sorry, we need your last name!
          [if scratch dealer]company=required Sorry, we need your company
name![/if]
          address1=required Sorry, we need your address!
          city=required Sorry, we need your company name!
          state=required Sorry, we need your State/Province!
          email=required Sorry, we need your email address!
          contact=required Sorry, we need to know how you would like to be
contacted! 
          phone_day=required Sorry, we need your phone number!
[/set]

So when anyone tries click that "Remove" check box, they get their item
listed twice and lots of red text next to their text input fields telling
them they need to fill these fields out.  I have hunted through google for
some good JavaScript properties, methods or event handlers for a clue.  I
tried changing this.form.submit()" to this.form.reset()" but that wasn't
very helpful as it just made the checkbox useless.  My JavaScript abilities
are not so hot. Any suggestions?  HELP!!!!!!!
