I have a list of radio buttons. At the end, there is a radio button for Other
and a text field to fill in the details. How do I make the text field required
when the Other radio button is selected?
Thanks,
Kim

You would have to do that server side, not client side.

When validating, does requiring the typing of a specific word have to be done on the server side also? Thanks!

Anything that *cannot* fail must be done on server side.

Or the other way round: Everything that runs on the client-side _must_
be considered optional and _insecure_.
