I just wrote a little form validator script. It checks just as many form fields as you want.
And it is simple to make it check form fields which aren't called 'text1' and so on. just put the form-field-names in an array like this:
var formnames= new Array("Name","City","Shoesize"...)

and check it like this:

if (eval('document.theform.text'+formnames(i)+'.value')=="")
...
eval('document.theform.text'+formnames(i)+'.style.backgroundColor="white"')
