Your server-side processor must check to see if it was done, and if not,
return to the page with all the other fields showing what was entered,
and appends a message that it wasn't checked. There is no foolproof
method of client-side coding that will do this.

Oh, you could add some JavaScript to check, but if the visitor has
JavaScript disabled, or unavailable perhaps due to a corporate firewall,
you still must check at the server.
