   Love this plugin! I apologize in advance if these questions have already been asked... I've looked all over but couldn't find anything.

   Is it possible to set a field (or multiple fields) as required? Ie. a user must fill in a particular field or fields before successfully publishing their post.

   It would also be great if the fields were automatically labeled for accessibility in the backend (ie. <label for="somefield">Some Field:</label><input type="text" id="somefield">).

   Again, if this has already been addressed, please point me in the right direction. Thanks for a great plugin!

   I am looking for some good ways to validate the field values.... This is a temporal way to set a field as required by use of JavaScript.

   Template Instruction
   

   <script type="text/javascript">
   jQuery('#save-post').click(function() {
   	if(!jQuery('.test').val()) { alert('Empty!'); return false; }
   });
   jQuery('#publish').click(function() {
   	if(!jQuery('.test').val()) { alert('Empty!'); return false; }
   });
   </script>

   Template Content
   

   [test]
   type = text
   size = 35
   class = test

   Hi Hiroaki,

   This is great plug-in, however, I ran into some issues. I followed the same instructions, but when I leave the field empty, click on publish, it says empty. After I gave the value and click on publish, it still says empty. Please advice.

   This is my template content:

   [Attach]
   type = textarea
   rows = 4
   cols = 40
   tinyMCE = true
   mediaButton = true
   class = Attach

   [Post As]
   type = checkbox
   value = Anonymous
   valueLabel = Anonymous
   output = true

   This is template instruction:
   <script type="text/javascript">
   jQuery('#save-post').click(function() {
   if(!jQuery('.Attach').val()) { alert('Empty!'); return false; }
   });
   jQuery('#publish').click(function() {
   if(!jQuery('.Attach').val()) { alert('Empty!'); return false; }
   });
   </script>

   Thank you very much!!!
