Try what?
That's only half the problem

I don't use the formhandler component; I design the form on the page and then select the formhandler.php in the form properties. Always worked for me before, although of course, validation probably isn't working on any of my forms.
I've taken over a site built in NoF. We have several forms and they will detect if no data is entered and prompt the visitor to enter something. But they won't detect basic stuff like is there an "@" sign in the email address. And is there a recognized domain suffix after the "." i.e. .com, .net etc etc. As a result visitors can put anything in the fields (even just 1 letter is enough) and the form will validate ... Very poor. But hey, that's my experience of NoB all the way through :-(
