Validation not Working

I have the form created, and added the validation, but its not working, I am still able to submit the form with no data entered in it, very frustrating.

since your form posts to another page, you will need to set the validation failure redirect to point back to the form page, right now the validation failure redirect is left blank, so it's just redirecting to the contact form page and appearing to have gone through successfully.

Can't do server side validation

Ok, I got the validation part to work, but having problems with the validation show if, when testing and field is not filled out, it takes me back to the form page, but doesn't show the message next to the field that I set up.

Can't do server side validation

If I go to fill out the form, and put blank spaces in the name field or any other required field, i get kicked back to the form and it doesn't submit, which is what I want; but I am still getting forms submitted with no data, how can this be? I have updated my trouble ticket with required information; but still don't know how a form can be submitted with blank fields if I have validation set, also don't allow any spaces, this is really confusing me now.
