I need help in modifying a social network script. I want to change it so that users must fill in at least one of the radio buttons; at present they can fill in a message and post it without selecting one of the radio icons. I want to make it a requirement for one radio icon to be selected. Any help greatly appreciated.

Can you post the Javascript code for the startUpload() function?

Try replacing lines 554 - 558 with the following:

function startUpload() {
    if (!$("input[name='type']").is(':checked')) {
        alert('You must select an option before submitting');
    }
    else {

        document.getElementById("imageForm").target = "my_iframe"; //'my_iframe' is the name of the iframe
        document.getElementById("imageForm").submit();
        document.getElementById("post-loader9999999999").style.visibility = "visible";
    }
}
