Thanks for the quick response – I appreciate it.
Just to clarify:
I was planning on having something (maybe an * with a note “* = required”) to indicate required fields, but got stuck on how to indicate that we’d like both but only 1 of the 2 was required.
I wasn’t thinking of including the sentence “But we’ll need to have either YOUR PHONE or YOUR EMAIL required – one of these, but not both.” on the form., but maybe that’s the simplest way to go if I phrase it better.
And maybe I’m wrong, but if I see a form with fields for my phone number and email address that are NOT required, I’ll usually leave them blank. I think that people are increasingly realizing that it’s not in their best interests to divulge this info (selling to telemarketers, opening the door to SPAM, etc.) unless it’s absolutely necessary.
