My knowledge of HTML escapes me and google was of no help.

How do I make a field on a form required? >.>

Well you can't do that with HTML alone, you would need to use PHP or Javascript.

Ah, any links or instructions to point me in the right direction?

Maybe vB already has this built in? I am doing this on a vB board.

This will make it show up in a standard error message from vbulletin.

Put it after the submit button action.

Code:

if ($formanswer == '')
{
$errormessage="you need to answer this question since it's required";
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('STANDARD_ERROR') . '");');
	exit();
}

How do I apply this to a specific field?
