Thanks")* Hi, First, your template include jQuery more that needed which create some javascript errors. It could explain that some javascript is not running in the page so, some messages are not displaying. After that, the alert boxes on custom fields are managed by the form itself, not the custom field elements. The address form checks his values before the submit, the "add to cart" might not.

Thanks")* Interesting that you mention my problem may be my custom template. So I've tested to use the default template that comes with Joomla 3 and the issue is still there; no alert box on the required fields if they are blank: [ Join PTSA link](http://fcptsa.webevolutionary.com/join-ptsa.html) but all the alert works correctly only this page [ JAG Fund](http://fcptsa.webevolutionary.com/fundraising/jag-fund-honor-roll.html) So this is quite puzzling to me. I don't think your jquery comment is causing the problem. I've deleted and recreated the products and categories as well as placing these two order pages on different template. Hope you can discover the solution to my dilemma.

So I couldn't see any problem actually.
