checking a text field

I just want to check if a text field named "name" in the previous form, which was sumbitted to this page. I tried it with

if(!isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['name'])){

but it doesnt seem to work. I have the same problem with every text field. my script just always thinks there is something in it. But I want to return an error if the name is not entered.
help!
thx

RE: checking a text field

You might want to also check the value on the client side with JavaScript.

if(form_name.name.value == ""){
alert("No Name");
return false;
}

Just a suggestion.
